Growth ultrasound at 10:30 EST and regular OB check up at 3:00 EST. Excited to see LO on screen today and really curious to see how he/she is measuring. At my 13 week u/s baby was already measuring "tall". DS was 22.5 inches at birth so I am curious to see how this baby is comparing.
Good luck everyone!
Update: Update: Baby is measuring 6 lb 14 oz - "generously sized" in the words of my doctor. I thnk I need to get those 3 month clothes in the wash soon
Regular OB check up today at 1:30. Lots of questions to ask my dr. Since it seems she doesn't give up info too freely... every 2 weeks from here on out!!
Appt went great! BP 110/68, HB 150s, belly measuring on track at 32 weeks and got a high five for no weight gain in a month (definitely didn't plan that one)! Oh and I didn't poop on anyone! Yay
Regular appointment was at 9. Got moved to weekly from here on out due to rising BP - although I'm 34w so really only means 1 extra appointment. Ultrasound has been scheduled for 38w to check for position, size, fluid levels in case he hasn't turned from transverse to vertex and then if that goes well they'd go ahead and attempt to flip him and induce me. Still sinking in that I could be delivering this baby in 4 weeks!
Regular OB appt for 32 weeks. Doctor told me she doesn't want me to gain any more weight, just to maintain. Told me to eat more fruits, veggies, lean proteins, whole wheat.....yeah...just what I want to eat right now! Even though my blood pressue, glucose, etc. is fine, she just wants to be on the safe side. ergg. I know I should eat better anyway, but it's hard.
I have an Appt @ 4pm pst to measure the little guy. I have been measuring 2 weeks ahead for awhile now and my new hospital wants to check it out since my last one didn't.
36 week appointment - Group B swab was done. I gained no weight for 2 weeks (huge plus for me since that's never happened), Cervix is soft but closed and baby girl is HEAD DOWN! Yay!
Growth scan today. Baby is in the breech position and low fluid. Have to return friday for yet another ultrasound. Fingers crossed fluids doesnt get any lower.
OB appt went well. Got cleared to return to work next week but will be working shorter days. My BP was a bit high for me but Dr was not concerned. I will take that. Go back in 2 weeks
Had a regular 30 week appointment today, cervical length and growth scan. My suspicions that baby was big have finally been confirmed and he is weighing in at just under 5lbs, measuring 3-4 weeks ahead. He is still head down, looking happy and healthy.
Cervix hasn't changed much from last week (happy dance!) and is hanging out at 2cm w/ pressure. As far as I know I am still dilated but as long as my cervix hangs in there, the doctor isn't too worried.
The actual appointment ran 45 mins behind and the doctor seemed to be in a big rush so it was quick. I got my dTap, and decided it is still up in the air if baby will be early or not. The results of my Fetal Fibronectin were negative, so I know I will still be pregnant for at least another week.
Wishing everyone else happy appointments and healthy babies! Keep up the great work ladies!
Had my 34 week appt. this morning my BP was good baby's BP was good, only thing was that I was told to eat better so that I wont gain anymore weight if not lose weight. That put me in a bummer mood, I know I should be eating healthier and maintain my weight, but when I'm not in the mood to eat certain things I wont. Before finding out I was pregnant I had lost 40 pounds then another 5 due to morning sickness, so gaining part of that back is scary enough, I'm scared to imagine what it would have been like if I never lost that weight to begin with. #:-S
