    Not quite yet lol. My second A/S is today at 12:30 EST, I'm so excited! I'm not worried about anything, it's just my MFM's protocol for high risk patients. I keep getting kicked low, am wondering if he's breech right now. Good luck to everyone else!

    @kks4471 there's a good chance baby is breech as most don't turn into a head down position until 3rd trimester.

    I had my anatomy scan at 18 weeks but today I have my level II ultrasound to check on the umbilical cord cyst that was found at my anatomy scan. Fingers crossed that everything is good to go...... I'm a bit nervous. I am leaving work in like 10 minutes to head to the clinic.

    Dr appt with GD test tonight at 5:45 EST.  Hoping I can choke down this drink in the 5 mins they given me.  I've never been good at chugging, not even in college.
    Call me crazy, but I kind of liked it - it tasted like flat orange soda. You can do it!!

    I have my next regular monthly appt this morning.  And then my daughter has her 2 year check up right after me.  

    I hope everyone has good appointments!

    @mslovesbo I'm so glad to hear baby is keeping up with growth! I've been thinking if you and your LO!

    I had my anatomy scan today (22 weeks, this was the third appointment, first two canceled). 

    First, let me say, I am so glad I switched OBs (and thus hospitals). I had to go to my old hospital for the scan due to insurance reasons. Very uncomfortable, and the tech was not pleasant at all. They didn't tell me anything, only that they would call the results into my doctor. There wasn't even a "everything looks good, but follow up with your doctor" comment. Is this common? 

    When it came to the gender, the tech said "boy". We were previously told girl (at 18 weeks), shown the three lines, and the tech said she was "100%". When I told the tech today this, she said that although she didn't see a nub, it wasn't flat enough to be a girl. I am pretty unconvinced either way, and am ready to be team green. Did anyone else go through something similar?

    I am feeling pretty unsatisfied after this appointment. I was really looking forward to hearing that everything looked good, and seeing my baby girl (or boy) again. I didn't get to see anything (although they did give me a nice picture to take home), I didn't find anything about the babys health, and was greatly uncomfortable for 2 1/2 hours (also - is it normal for it to take that long?). I can't wait to go back to my OB in a few weeks, hopefully get followup information.

    I had an appointment with CNP for GD today (although we usually talk about everything while I'm there).

    I'm doing well with my blood sugars. She was concerned that I've gained 10lbs in about a month (I hadn't gained any previously, so the big picture isn't so bad, just that it has come on quick). However, she's not sure if it is diet related (I haven't changed anything) or if it is because I'm swelling up like a balloon (the more likely culprit). In addition to that, my blood pressures continue to creep upward which is concerning, my bloodwork that they ran a couple weeks ago for PIH/preeclampsia looked good but she said not to be surprised if OB wants to do them again after my appointment coming up next week. I have had a few more dizzy spells where my blood pressure spiked again in the past few days, and last night I was seeing spots (although my pressure was good then so I didn't call... and I was told I need to call if that happens again). So... not a great appointment I guess. CNP said odds are pretty good that I'm not going back to work until after baby. ((sigh)). I see cardiology tomorrow so we'll see what they say too.

    Just got a call from my ob. I was in last week with cramping and discharge. They did a full exam and all seemed fine but also ran some tests to be sure. Turns out I have a bacterial infection called Group B Strep. They put me on antibiotics ASAP (one pill every 8 hours) and I go in tomorrow for a follow up. Wondering if any of you ladies have had any kind of infection detected at your recent appointments? Seems like there could be a few serious complications but only if the infection goes untreated. I'm 24w 1d.

    PS- hope it's okay to post with you ladies. I didn't want to create a whole new post since this is related to my last appt and figured it was more appropriate to post here than in daily symptoms.

    @sarahsmile01 I just finished a round of antibiotics for my second BV infection.  Doc isn't concerned since I didn't have any pre-term labor signs (which BV can cause). 

    GBS is pretty common.  You will likely get another test for it before you deliver as you will have to do a round of IV antibiotics while you are in labor.  Glad it didn't cause you any issues this time!

    @SarahSmile01 - I had GBS earlier this pregnancy and was told the same thing.  I took the antibiotic and they said as long as it was treated there shouldn't be any problem.  I had it at the end of my pregnancy with my daughter so they just gave me antibiotics when I went into labor, which is fairly common.

    Had my 25 week check in today and glucola test. Heartbeat strong in the 140s, fundal height on track. Glucola test wasn't terrible...I had orange flavor (chilled) and managed to keep it down. Results pending!

    @SarahSmile01--Hope your infection clears up quickly!

    @CDK211 - you are incredible! Thank you so much for all the insight. I'm seeing my Dr tomorrow morning and, thanks to you, I now know just what to ask! The cramping has stopped (thankfully) so hoping these antibiotics clear it all up. I will be having a C section, so not sure how that changes the delivery risks but I'll be sure to ask.

    Seriously, I cannot thank you enough!!!
