Appointment this Wednesday. Non stress test. Hopefully all goes well. Wishing everyone well wishes for their appointments this week! We are almost there ladies!
@chaysefaith sorry I updated in the random thread!
His cyst is gone! Woohoo! And his growth is on track.
Downsides: he is still breech and my fluid is low so I will have weekly NSTs here on out.
Well that sounds like a mostly good update! FX on the low fluid, hopefully they just caught the ultrasound at a bad time.
Had my normal check-up today. Pretty uneventful, which is good! Dr. Said measurements are on track and heartbeat is still strong. Good luck to everyone else with appointments this week!
Had my growth scan today. He is measuring right on track he weighs approximately 5 lbs 3 oz. I still have more fluid then I should do I will be going for a 5th ultrasound next month. He was so active again, sucking his fingers and yawning and sticking his tongue out. Oh my little Chase.
I had a checkup yesterday. Everything was fine. She said my belly measured on track and his heartbeat sounded good. I asked about his position because I was curious, and she mashed around on my belly for a while and said she thought he was breech at the moment. Although I think today he is transverse, judging by the hard roundish lumps sticking out on the right and left sides of my belly. Fairly certain he's still flipping around at this point so I'm not worrying about it!
33 week appointment was scheduled for Monday but my OB got called in for a delivery so we moved my appt to yesterday. Everything looks good, found out we will have another ultrasound at my 35 week appointment, can't wait to see our little guy again since our last one was at 20 weeks.
30 week appointment tomorrow morning. I'm looking forward to finding out when my next ultrasound will be. The last one was at 20 weeks so I'm now as close to that week as I am to my due date which is terrifying. I'm hoping that the dr wants to take another peek at the baby at 32 weeks, but we'll see. Hoping to stay normal and boring with this pregnancy!
For everyone hoping to get an ultrasound at this point: don't get your hopes up. You cannot see ANYTHING. Baby is so big you literally just see black and white splotches. The only thing we could make out was ribs cause the white bone lit up. She tried to show us his face and neither H or I was seeing it. The anatomy scan is by far the best one to see the entire baby and its features.
Whew I need to AW for a second. My bloodtest just came back negative for downs!!! My little girl will still have feet problems most likely, but no other chromosomal abnormalities. Whew, I feel like I can breathe again!
Appointment with OB and MFM this week and both went great! Both babies are measuring in at 3 pounds, fluid looks good, and blood pressure was great. I am officially on "house arrest/bedrest" until 34 weeks, at which point they would be okay with the babies coming. March will be here before we know it!
I now have to: eat every single one of my allotted carbs every meal. Take medication so that my numbers don't get too high while eating all my allotted carbs. Test for ketones with FMU every morning and document. E-mail my GD nurse weekly with my numbers. Gain at least a pound in the next two weeks. Eat more fatty foods to ensure the required weight gain.
Only six or seven or eight weeks of this left. I can do it. Somebody go have a donut in my name.

We had one last week at 32 weeks and didn't experience this at all. We were able to clearly see his mouth opening and closing (cutest thing ever) and him moving his arm over his face like he was trying to cover it up. Maybe the sonographer just couldn't get a good angle.
My appointment went well this week and they still have me taking pills for my anemia. Other than that everything is going great plus they gave me pre-registration papers for delivery to fill out. Cool
Had my appointment this morning and did my 3 hour glucose test. I am so glad that it is over and hoping I get a passing result next week. I had a quick visit with my OB and had a brief ultrasound. Fluid levels looked good and she is still breech and facing my back.
Had my 32 week appointment last Friday. They noticed more fluid than normal so now I'm doing 2x weekly fetal monitoring,seeing a high risk doctor and a bunch of tests to rule out an esphogeal atresia... Totally freaked out as we thought everything was great up til now.
Had my appointment, did 1hr glucose test. I figure no news is good news since they haven't called to say there was anything wrong. Also got the tDap shot today (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis), arm still sore. Will now be going in every 2 weeks. There are 4 doctors at the office I go to, and I have met 2 of them already, they scheduled me to have an appointment with another one, they want us to be acquainted with each doctor on the off chance we go into labor when our usual doctor isn't there so we will still feel comfortable.

Had my 31 week appointment this morning. Weight and blood pressure are good. Urine sample good. Belly measuring right on track and HB sounded great. It also appears that LO is head down. I'll have an u/s at 36 weeks to confirm his position. Next appointment is in two weeks!
I had my 32 week appointment today and all is well. Next week he will give me a strep test and I start weekly visits after that. Time is starting to go by quickly!
Great 34 week appointment today! LO kicked the doppler; it was the first time I've experienced that and it made me giggle. Then I had to hold my breath so we could keep listening to the heartbeat.
Had my appt Wednesday for 30 wk. measuring right on track and HB is good. The night before I started having Braxton hicks contractions but they were coming every few minutes, not painful but unsettling because I thought they weren't supposed to be more than 5-6 per hour. Ended up in L/D Tuesday night, everything was fine, no cervical changes so they were deemed BH. At the appt Wednesday they said this may just be my new normal. Belly tight all the time. She still wiggles around constantly so I'm guessing she tolerates them well I go in 2 weeks and get an US to check on the placenta. Hoping it's not low lying anymore!
