The doctor’s appointments are coming fast and furious now… I am getting on the “every other week” cycle. Ryan was able to come with me today, which was so nice. I rewarded him with lunch and a movie date afterward!
Everything still looks great. My uterus is measuring fine and… great news! No Gestational Diabetes! I was relieved. I didn’t ask what my number was, but Nurse R said all my numbers look ‘very, very good… excellent’, so I just let that be. This will be the last blood test before childbirth, which was nice to hear.
One downer at the appointment? I gained 2 pounds too much this month. Nurse R attributed that to the holiday and the weather… too much salt and water retention. Even so, I guess I should watch it before it gets out of control. Katelyn just makes me want salty foods and sweet/sour treats! At least I am still in the “normal” range for weight gain, albeit on the higher side of normal (19 lbs gained thus far). Anyway, I’m going to try harder to be better.
Lastly, we scheduled our next 3D ultrasound. Just a few more weeks. :)
