Had my OB appt. yesterday. All is well, but no new u/s pics because baby is head down, facing my back, and had his legs crossed. He's in the perfect position for birthing...no one's told him that he's got 12 weeks to go I guess! Heart rate was 165, I was probably a bit dehydrated but no biggie.
According to the u/s, he's now measuring about 5 days ahead of dates, but of course there's a +/- of 2 weeks at this stage. He looks good though.
Weighing an estimated 2#11oz.
Wanna hear a funny? As the LPN was bringing me back to the exam room she said, "So you're doing the glucola test today, right?" I looked at her and snorted, "Um NO!" "Oh, are you refusing," she says (looking incredulous)... "Um, read my chart, what does it say?" ...blank stare... "Okay, how about this, read my MedicAlert bracelet?" "Oh, you're already diabetic!" Wow, she was a genius I tell ya!
Later my OB tells me that it's the LPN's first day, so I forgive her.
The appointment was rather dull, nothing exciting going on this week. I did get the preregistration papers for the hospital. This is, of course, not needed if I go into labor on my own before 40 weeks...otherwise OB is inducing due to my T1 status. Also, that's the only way I'll be assured of getting the waterbirthing tub at the hospital. I also have all of my appointments set up for the next 10 weeks. Oy! The next month they are bi-weekly, then then next ones are weekly. I didn't realize I was at the bi-weekly stage yet!
Oh and I lost a pound since my last checkup. I think it's because I'm still not really over the flu. I can only eat little bits at a time lately, and still feel nauseas most of the time.
