The baby's private business:
I went to see my OBGYN for my monthly routine check up today. Brace yourselves...I gained 6 pounds this month! Again, my doctor reminded me...only one pound a week. I know, I know! Tell that to this baby that keeps me hungry 24/7! My blood pressure is great, and I have had very little swelling so far. My doctor did not seem to be very worried about me testing borderline for Gestational Diabetes. He just suggested to watch my sugar and carbohydrate intake (the same as the nurse advised). I can do that! I've actually learned to acquire a taste for diet drinks. I didn't think I could drink diet sodas, but when you're desperate - you'll try anything! I had another ultrasound today. It's still a little girl (hotdog bun and all)! She is currently in the breech position. Her measurements are right on track (29-30 weeks). My doctor says she is probably around 3 and a half pounds right now. He anticipates her to weigh around 7 and a half pounds at birth. Can you believe that is only 11 weeks away? I can't believe how quickly this pregnancy has progressed!
PS - I'm feeling better now (at least for the moment). My hormones are giving me a break this week! (See my, "I Need Help!" post for more details.)
