04-9-2009 - 20 Week Appt

My mood while writing this blog: \'sleepy\'

Just arrived home from OB appt. She had a delivery and could not measure me... Im ok with that I told the RN. So the RN measured and I am showing 23 weeks and Im just about 21 weeks, so belly is growing just fine. My tripple screen tests all came back Neg... whooo hoo. No worries of Trisomy !. Ultra sound results were great too.! My only concern was when she went to listen to babys heartbeat it took a minute to find and when she did it seemed very slow... although she said it was fine... AND when she was putting the doppler on me the slightes pressure gave me pain in my back... like she pushed on baby and baby pushed on kindey.... very uncomfortable... I mentioned this to her and she didnt say anything or seem overyly concerned... Ill have to mention to OB in Oct... She said I have gained 13 lbs in a month and that is normal... What!!!! She said most ppl gain their weight in the first two trimesters... also with the heat wave she said I could be having water retention and who knows next time Im in I might loose 8 lbs... that would be nice as long as it didnt hurt baby... so overall things look good. We are moving right along and on track.. Baby love dust everyone.

I am glad to hear that everything was all right. You did say that she is sitting very low which could account for the pain you are feeling. 13 pounds is nothing because you are so tiny. statistically skinnier people tend to gain more weight. For those of us with with some chunk on us the baby has plenty of fat to stel from already. It will be all right, I feel it. You will have a beautiful healthy baby just like you.
