Had my midwife appointment today everything is good. My U/S came back completley normal on all accounts. YAY! No more low lying placenta, three vessels in the cord (my middle son only had two), no cord prolapse cord is nice and up and away. Baby is growing well and still going with the Dec 12th date. My blood pressure is fine. Baby's heart rate is strong and steady and baby is wiggling and moving like a champ. My uterious is measuring pretty much where it should be (4th pregnancy they can tend towards the lower flabby side go figure LOL) so Have my form for my GD test, she gave me some advice on avoiding the same problem I had last time which was the nurse telling me to drink it slowly then taking my blood 20 minutes later and me failing. GO FIGURE! She said to eat some protean like eggs before I go, carb up the night before so your body is not running on empty. But avoid carbs and fruit in the morning. Gained a bit more weight then I was happy with, 23 pounds. But oh well I know between breast feeding and weight watchers which i can return to after my pregnancy is over I will lose it again. I'm trying not to stress over it. I also got my baby stuff from my brother I don't talk to any longer - so glad he still had it all! So I am pretty much set for clothes regardless the gender, my bassinet, swing, jumper etc. and even a tub. So I really only NEED to get another crib mattress eventually. Oh and some new soothers, going to find a different brand then my older son has because I don't know if he will have given them up 100% and he might steal the babies. LOL
