March 11th, 29wks.
This appointment went much better than
the one two weeks ago. I found out that
all 4 blood draws from the 3-hour glucose
test were normal. I was figuring at least
one of them to be high (and truthfully,
the second draw - the first one after
drinking the orange stuff - was one point
below "borderline"). And the
doctor had nothing negative to say about
my weight gain this time. Just 3 pounds
in 2 weeks, which is about normal. Phew!
My blood pressure was nice and low. Everything
is looking good. Looks like in 2 weeks
I get another ultrasound to make sure
Ella stays at the 69th percentile for
her size. It's okay that she's big, we
just want to make sure she continues to
grow at the same speed she has been, not
a faster one.
Next appointment is Thursday, March 25th
at 9:45am.
