Today we are officially into our 28th week of pregnancy. We had a doctor visit this morning for my glucose screening. The doctor also checked me out and everything was looking great. My weight gain is right at 20lbs and the baby's heart rate is about 145. Blood pressure was 116/63 which I thought was good for having Cooper with me running around the office :) Rob came to join us for the blood draw which is what I was most worried about. He ended up having to take Cooper back to work with him because Cooper was not liking the long hour wait at the office and needed to be free. So I ended up doing the blood draw on my own and did very well. My glucose level was 117 which was well below the 135 that it needed to be.
We now begin our visit every 2 weeks for the next 4 visits then hit every week from that point on. Our last visit with Dr. Esses should be the Monday before we move in March. From there I should have only 2-3 more visits with the new doctor and this little one should be here.
Overall she is doing very well. She is super active, much more then Cooper was. And boy is she strong. She can wake me from a dead sleep with some of her kicks.
I got the flu this week and was sent over to Labor and Delivery to have the baby checked out and she kicked the entire time. The poor nurse had to keep coming in and adjusting the monitor because she was kicking it off and moving away from it. Baby girl ended up being just fine I just needed to get past the flu bug and feel better.
I am still working out about 2-3 times a week though it is getting much harder to do squats. I plan to continue till we move to Orlando!
We should have more to share in 2 weeks when we go back for our next visit.
