Sorry no updated pictures as of yet......
Today we went for another routine check up. We are visiting the dr. every two weeks at this point. Phew - lots of driving and work for a 'yep the baby has a heartbeat, see you in two weeks' kind of check up. And seriously, when I left I was not feeling like a happy pregnant lady! Here is why.....
1. We found out that we owed more $ after completely paying the bills off last time we came in. (How does that happen? )
2. The receptionist asked when I was due and after I responded "8 more weeks" she said...."wow.... are you having twins?" (Seriously, haven't you learned not to say that - especially since you see pregnant ladies every day!
And really, I am probably already aware of the fact that my stomach is larger than normal so you really don't need to share your wisdom with me - EVER AGAIN!
3. After my Dr. measured me she pointed out that I may really need a c-section this time because the baby is so big. (Huh..... I go to the chiropractor to finallly get my hips in line and now the baby is too big?? I just can't win.)
4. After taking my blood pressure, my nurse says, "Hum... a slight bit higher than normal but nothing to be worried about." ( Not sure why it was higher? Maybe the receptionist would know???)
By the time we left I was exhausted. Oh yes... probably should mention... baby's heartbeat was great - 140 beats per minute. I did measure three cm larger this time so yes... the baby is growing and getting bigger. The Dr. said that if they do a c-section it would only be a week early because the hospital frowns upon deliveries planned earlier than that.
Wouldn't it be just fantastic if I go into labor three weeks early and deliver a 7lb. baby without a c-section.......
Yeah... we'll see......
