Had my monthly check up today... Don't you worry that I gained 10 lbs! Yes, 10. Not 6 or 7 like I had thought. Not a huge deal I guess since my total weight gain is 9 lbs overall, but I best slow my roll! As much as I appreciated my Jamba Juice gift cards, they did not do me any favors on the scale. My Doctor was nice, and told me to cut back on the "juices" and to walk more. (Like I walk at all right now...maybe I should start?!)
I asked her a little more about my last ultrasound, since the radiologist was the most uninformative/unfriendly person I've ever met. She said that the Kidneys were on the "high-end of normal size" AND there was a slight "something-rather" in the Heart. (Can't remember the word she used). Nothing to worry about, she said, but since there were 2 things and not just one or the other, that is the reason I'm going to the Parenatologist tomorrow. Had it just been one or the other, she wouldn't send me. SO. Does this make me feel better or worse? I can't flippin decide. I have was super worried after the first ultrasound, but now have a very calm comforted feeling that our baby will be just fine.
More info to come hopefully after the ultrasound in the morning...
You are so funny! I love Jamba Juice too!! And I need to walk more too! If I didn't have a job outside of my home I don't know if I'd ever get up. I'm glad you feel comforted that your little girl will be ok. I'm sure she will be just fine.
ReplyDeleteJodee...it's definately always better safe than sorry. Good luck with your appointment tomorrow! I'm sure baby girl will be perfect!!

Hey Jodee! Congrats on the little girl!(Not that I know anything about having a little girl or anything but the idea always sounded fun) Try not to get too worked up over the ultrasound and stuff. We have had something come up with each of our boys.. An ultrasound with Porter showed a few small cycsts(they thought) on his brain, Phearson we had a false positive AFP test and then with this baby the whole antibody stuff. All the boys have turned out fine. Sometimes I wonder if all this technology is almost too much, I don't know. I say go with you gut feeling. Ryan and I both always had the feeling that each baby would be ok and they were. Good luck with your appointment. I will be thinking of you!
ReplyDeleteI would be worried too - I don't blame you! I'm glad the doctor didn't think you needed to worry though and that you feel peaceful about things. Keep us posted!
ReplyDeletePS - The baby blanket looks great. I can't even begin to imagine how long a simple blanket would take me to make - probably why I've just never started one!
Good Luck with your appointment. I'm sure everything will turn out fine.
