I had another check up with Dr. S. So far so good! From now on my visits will be every two weeks... My weight is in check (even though I don't FEEL like it is), my blood pressure is awesome, my urine is free of protein, the baby's heart rate is wonderful (about 155 bpm), AND... he is no longer breech!!! YEAH! Currently, his head is where it needs to be (but VERY, VERY low). Hopefully, he likes it that way because I don't want him to turn... Dr. S. also thinks I may be a week ahead of what I thought (28.5 weeks instead of 27.5!). We will know more as the visits continue. I also had my glucose and iron test. The glucose test is given to test for gestational diabetes, a high blood sugar condition that some women get during pregnancy. I had to drink a flat, watered down Sunkist-like drink (a.k.a. glucose syrup) and then get my blood drawn 1 hour after drinking. The drink was not horrible, but it made me a little shaky and nauseous. The iron test was given to screen for anemia. I get both test results back tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed!
That's all for now! Hope you are having a wonderful week!
