If you recall, I had taken my glucose test last Friday. I called yesterday to check on the results and I passed. Woo hoo!!! They also checked to see if I am anemic and I’m not.
Can I get a woot woot?
I gained 2 1/2 pounds since my last appointment (5 weeks ago), so now I am at 157 1/2. BP is normal. Heard the baby’s heartbeat, it is in the 140 range. Baby is about 1 1/2 lbs and well on its way to be 7 1/2 pounder. Doc is feeling confident of me doing a VBAC. So far so good.
We took Diego with us this time. The doctor had him help by measuring my belly (24 cm) and helped finding the heartbeat with the microphone. It was really cute. It was the first time I have take Diego to the OB since he was 6 weeks old (I think). He was very, very good.
I also did the glucose test. It was the flat orange drink. Hope I pass. My next appointment is in 4 weeks. I also get another U/S at 34 weeks.
Diego went to the doctor today. He did really good. He didn’t need any shots, not until next year. He had his blood pressure taken for the first time. It was like 90/55 or something like that. His weight is 32 1/2 lbs (60-70%) and he is 40″ tall (90%). He did get a finger prick to check his iron levels. His iron is a bit low but she recommended Flintstone vitamins with iron and cereal fortified with iron.
So his next visit is in one year and he will have to go back to get a flu shot later this year. He is growing quite well. =)
To my little man, Diego, who at 12:54 am made his grand appearance in this world. I can’t believe how three years have gone by so quickly. I will never forget the “angel kisses” on your nose and the spit bubbles that had formed on your lips when I first saw you. The way you looked at us wondering who the heck we were. It has been an interesting ride and it’s a ride I don’t want to get off. I hope this day will be a good one for you.
Hugs and Kisses, Mama
When I found out I was pregnant, we would ask Diego what he wanted to have: a baby brother or a baby sister? He would always respond baby sister. Now, he has started to refer to the baby as “she” never “he.” Interesting, no?
I guess we will have to wait roughly 17 weeks 4 days to see if he is right. 🙂
Just for the record, we are not wishing for one or the other at all. I don’t even have a hunch as to what I am having. Just an interesting observation.
We went for a walk to the recreational park across the street. There is soccer camp on Tuesday nights. As we were crossing the street, Eric noticed news cameras outside the fields. He said “I wonder what the paparazzi is for?” Low and behold, Barack Obama was there! I guess his oldest girl plays and they had a game going. He was there with his wife too. There were some people going up to him and getting pictures but mostly he was left alone so he can watch his kid play. There was the secret service but not anything crazy. It was cool though.
