My mood while writing this blog: Happy, but oh so tired. |
I just got home from my OB appointment. Everything is going well besides the placenta being a little too close to the cervix. The fetal heart echo came back great. Baby girl's heart looks good. My glucose test came back good too....no gestational diabetes for this gal. My blood work is all good and for a change I am not anemic! Woo hoo! I was for the last 3 pregnancies. The only concern she had was my low BP and dizzy spells. My BP is lower than normal, but my blood work is not indicating anything abnormal so she recommends more fluids(I know, I know) and to make sure I eat frequent small meals. Of the 21 lbs I lost in the first trimester I have now gained back 8 of them which is to be expected. The baby's heart rate was 145 bpm. My two youngest sons had to come with me to the appointment and they both got to hear the heart beat. It was kind of cool. They weren't totally sure what they were hearing.
I booked my 4D ultra sound to follow up my placental location for May 5th. I will be 28 weeks and I am kind of excited to get it done. I cannot wait to see my baby girl!

Thursday, 23 Apr I was suppose to get my ultrasound again this last Friday, but they wouldn't do it b/c lack of help that day! I'm going to have to wait until the 8th of May! I will be a few days shy of week 28! Still don't know if this is a little girl for sure. I still have my hopes. The heart rate was 150. I thought this sounded a little low to guess a girl, I read how yours was lower than that and it is a girl. Made me a little more optimistic. I looked at my recording from my son's record when I was pregnant with him and his heartrate was 145 at 25 weeks. Kinda made me paranoid, but I know you directly can' t go by that anyway. kitz (Donna) -

Monday, 20 Apr Glad your appointment was good! Mine is Thursday, I'll be 25 weeks 5 days. I'm doing my sugar drink in the morning. Can't wait to check in on my girl Thursday, just her heartbeat though. Then my 4D is at 28 weeks too. I saw on your profile you're a nurse. I am to, but I don't work anymore. I work for mine and my husband's photography business :)
