29 week appt

Had a wonderful OBGYN appointment! My cervix is at 4...grew a little from last week...also no funneling! Yay!

Also our baby is weighing 3 lbs! 42 percentile!

Also I myself did not gain weight...thanks to my new diet...which I really dislike...

2 more days and we are at 30 weeks!

Until next time!

28 week appt and glucose test update

So I had my 28 week appt on this snowy day...all is good with baby...he is 2 lbs 14 oz and on track with his growth...cervix is also okay at over 3.9...a slightly shorter then last time but nothing to worry about...

Well to update you on my 1 hour glucose test it was 194 when it should not go past 140...so I was supposed to do the fast and then 3 hour test but bc myself and my OBGYN were worried I would get sick and it is not good for the cerclage that we decided to forgo the test and go straight to testing my blood sugar and controlling my diet as if I had gestational diabetes. So after my OBGYN appt and meeting with a nurse on how to use the glucometer, I went to see the dietician.

I am not sure why I was so worried but I can do this diet thing...some adjusting is needed but I only have a few weeks of this pregnancy to go...

Oh and after I got the results last week I started to eat better and even lost 2 lbs...how cool is that! I am on bedrest and cannot exercise but just watching what I eat I lost weight...that is how high your metabolism gets while pregnant...

Until next week!

27 week appt and glucose test

So today had our 27 week appt! Everything looks great! My cervical length is at 4.2 and my OBGYN did not have to do a transvaginal ultrasound yay!

Our baby also weighs 2 lbs 6 oz...thought he would be bigger bc I feel huge!

Then I did the 1 hour glucose test...was not expecting to do it today bc OB said at 28 weeks but I said okay...I mean all I ate this morning was some bread with cream cheese...

After reading so many things about this I thought the drink would be gross but it was not bad...I just hope I passed it though bc I do not want to wait there for 3 hours.

So the appt was great!
Now onto 28 weeks on Sunday!

26 week appt!

So had my 26 week appt today...the last couple of days were a little stressful bc I started having unusual discharge...and even called my doc last night but he was not worried so I just waited until today.

Well my cervix seems to have a mind of its own...but today in a good way bc my cervix from internal to external is at a little over 4! It got longer! Woohoo! After last week I was freaked out but all looks good! Now I just need it to keep behaving...and doc said no more transvaginals unless I have bleeding! Another woohoo! Those transvaginals are not comfortable...so I have stick with my bedrest...now onto week 27!

Did a quick abdominal ultrasound like usual...he was moving around so much that he could not get a measurement but got a great shot of our LO's bottom ;) I love how my doc gives me all these pics...soon will have a great scrapbook of all these sonograms...

So I had another first with our baby...felt him through my stomach...think it was his head...nice and round...freaked me out a little bc it was just there for a while and then moved when I changed positions. Could have been his head or bottom...

Well I am so relieved after this appointment...hopefully it stays long...
Oh and our baby was not breeched at this appointment but I know he flip flops...

Until next time!
