35 week appt

Everything was measuring good today.  My belly is measuring at 37 weeks now, so not too bad.  I had the Group B strep test today, not as bad as I thought it would be.  She asked me if I wanted a cervix check, I declined.  I found out I have to go to CVS or the health dept. to get my Tdap vaccine.  I also start my weekly appointments.  I can't believe she's almost here!

33 week appt

Welp, I'm growing a big baby!  Her head is measuring a little big, but her abdomen is in the 88th percentile.  Doc is keeping me on low carbs and treating me like I have gestational diabetes, just without the insulin checks.  He said "keep doing what I'm doing."  She is weighing in at 5 pounds.  He said we'll do another growth check at 37 weeks, and then that will help tell how delivery will go.

31 week appt

Weight and blood pressure are good.  My belly is still measuring 2 weeks ahead, so doc has ordered a growth ultrasound for next appointment.  She also wants me to try a low carb diet, and see if that helps.  We'll find out in 2 weeks if it's fluid that is making the belly big, or if it's Princess Peach.  Fingers crossed it's fluid making it big.
