Appointments: Week of December 19

Nothing like an appointment to get a girl in the holiday spirit! Who's going over the river and through the woods to the doctor's office this week??

    I have a regular bi-weekly check up on Thursday. We may or may not schedule the official date for the c-section. I'm thinking not... she'll probably only want to discuss it a few weeks prior.

    I'm the office's first appointment of the day and I've already been waiting over 20 minutes just to go back. Not a good start to my Monday

    I have an OB appointment on Wednesday. I'm going to ask if they do anything differently for women who are AMA when it comes close to the EDD.

    I have a bi-weekly appointment and growth scan on Thursday. Hoping it will be rather uneventful!

    I had my 30-week appointment this morning, which was a little bit behind schedule since I'll be 31 weeks on Wednesday.  Measured right on schedule, heartbeat was really strong, and my weight gain has slowed wayyyyy down, thank goodness.  I'll go back next Thursday for the 32-week jobber.  I also scheduled my 34-, 35-, and 36-week checkups, which felt like a Shit Just Got Real moment for me.  Here's hoping it's all boring, quick checkups like this from here on out!

    I had my first of the every two weeks appointments today.   Everything looked and sounded good,  my levels were good from bloodwork and he confirmed the kicked in the crotch feeling is normal at this stage with a 3rd full term pregnancy.  Great?

    He says they only check position at 36 weeks,  but the baby was head down today.

    34 week checkup tomorrow! With my actual OB, instead of one of the other partners in her practice! (fun fact, I've only actually met my OB once)

    Random fact: bi weekly can mean twice a week or every other week.  English rocks.
    I love learning something :-)

    Regular every 2 week checkup tomorrow morning.  Last appointment she was already head down, and hopefully she still is!

    32 week appt today...got my tdap and everything else was super normal and uneventful. She recommended I stop wearing my wedding rings, but that's about it (concerns about randomly swelling up one day, or ending up in an emergency situation and needing to find a secure place for them). I don't go back until 36 weeks, and then weekly appointments after that. 

    We did have an interesting discussion about birth control and plans post pregnancy. It's weird we're getting to the point where that's something to be thinking about. Where did the last 28 weeks go!?

    I had my gd clinic this afternoon. The baby is still measuring over 90th percentile & as a result the consultant is thinking that theyll take me in early to be induced at around 38 weeks. Ive kinda been freaking out since as thats only 4 weeks away & whilst im excited to meet her, it just feels so soon & im completely unprepared!
    That is so soon!

    Wow @Janefelicity!! That is super soon!

    I have my 32w appointment tomorrow. This will be my first appointment since I had my GD diagnoses. I plan on asking all the questions as I'm kind of concerned on how this changes the plans for delivery and whether or not I'll be induced. I'll have a 34w appointment on Jan 4th because then they start going every two weeks. Crazy we're all getting so close to the end!
