27 Weeks

Had the ol’ 27 week appointment this morning, and it was a fabulous one.  I’ve only gained 4 pounds in the last 3 weeks, which lets me breathe a sigh of relief that my gain is slowing down.  26 pounds for the pregnancy so far, which is high-side-of-normal and not worrisome and better than I thought I was doing, honestly.  My blood pressure is holding at excrutiatingly normal on the same dose of meds, which is awesome.  I dread having to increase the dosage since I take a beta-blocker and the last time we did that I slept for two weeks.  Heh.  The results from my 1 hour glucose weren’t back yet...I’m hoping that there’s no message on the machine when I get home tonight.  I’m measuring a week ahead, as I have been all along.  Got my schedule for non-stress tests and BPP ultrasounds starting in 5 weeks.  All the arrangements are made, I just have to show up.  Made the midwife happy by telling her I was planning to breastfeed when she asked.  In and out of there in like 10 minutes flat.

I should put up a schedule to help me keep it straight now that the appointments are getting kind of fast and furious.  Next Monday is the next Level 2 U/S with the peri, then the Monday after is another appointment with the midwife, then the next week my primary doc, then the week after the OB, then the week after the monitoring starts.

I’m going to be a very busy girl.
