25-7-2008 - Better hit the gym!! happyMy mood while writing this blog:
happy



Just back from the OB and everything is fine.

We got the results of our Quad Screen and thankfully everything came back perfect. Smile

In case you don't know, the Quad Screen is a prenatal test that measures the levels of four substances in a pregnant woman's blood. Typically, the quad screen is done between weeks 15 and 20 of pregnancy. Results of the quad screen indicate a risk of carrying a baby who has certain developmental or chromosomal conditions, such as spina bifida or Down syndrome.

My blood pressure was 100/66 and the baby's heartbeat was right around 150 beats per minute.

The only part that made me cringe was my weight...never a good thing...Up until last month I had only gained 1/2 pound total but I completely made up for it with a 10 (yes TEN) pound gain in the last 4 weeks!! Good news is I'm in a healthy range overall at 10.5 lbs and 5 months bad news is I gained it all at once! Now I have to be careful not to continue at 2 lbs a week or I'm gonna be huge...

We go back August 13th for our big Ultrasound (finally)!! Can't wait to see the baby!

I gained 40 lbs with my son, most of it was packed on towards the end. Then with my daughter I gained about 33lbs. then once again most of it was packed on between 7-8 months then the last month I gained 3lbs in about 5 weeks which was different. I've lost only about 20lbs and i'm standing in at 153ish. I am still nursing so I only plan on dieting after I'm done nursing so she's getting her nutrition as well as me.

Don't be discouraged if you gain weight.. just look at it as a good thing for yourself and the baby. I wouldn't work out to the point where you're exhusted because if you're short on oxygen, so will the baby. I would just take 30 min walks everyday, it's better than just sitting around! =]
