33 weeks and more...

On Thursday went to my OBGYN appt and this time with my friend who came in to throw me a baby shower.

We got to really see our little one and he is 4 lb 11 oz...and has a cute chubby face!
He then checked my cervical length and was at 3.6...hopefully after this weekend though it will not get any shorter bc of my baby shower.
However there was one thing that did not go the way I wanted...my blood pressure was high enough that my doc made me come back today to recheck my blood pressure. Thankfully it was okay today.

So this past Saturday had my baby shower...it was so much fun...Playing games and chatting away...I missed meeting up with friends...

Oh and we have an official date for taking our cerclage out...Ditch the Stitch date is March 16!

Until my next appt...

32 week appt!

Had my weekly OBGYN appt today! It was a good appt and was not with my doc...

My cervical length is at 3.8...this is good at 32 weeks...

Also baby is 4 lbs! He is growing well!

The downside of my appt was that my fasting blood sugar has been a little high for a few days so if I cannot get it down this weekend I will need to go on insulin shots. I really do not want to...I already have so much going on with this pregnancy but I guess for a healthy baby I need to do all I can for his health.

Onto 33 weeks!

31 week appt

31 weeks...almost 32...cannot believe we are so close now to the finish line...I am so excited but also nervous at the same time because we really do not know what to expect when it comes to the stitch coming out and then when our baby boy will want to come out and not knowing what labor will be like although I went through it twice before but this will be a little different bc we will have a bigger baby...but my biggest worry is how I am going to know when I am in labor...hopefully there will be a lot of big signs telling me I am going into labor...

So my appt today was so much better than last week!

My cervical length was at 3.7! I had a feeling it was longer bc I did not have as much cramping like I did last week...so I am happy about that.

Also despite of my GD diet I gained 2 lbs and this is due to our little one's growth spurt! He is now 3lbs 12oz...I know that the ultrasound is not accurate with weight but at least I know the numbers are increasing telling me he is growing! He is almost 4 lbs but after reading about birth weights vs ultrasound, it seems most are off by a pound usually birth weight being bigger so he can already be at the 4 lb mark...

So hoping to go full term if we keep going at this rate but who knows what will happen once the stitch comes out...

30 week appt!

We have made it to 30 weeks!!!
I cannot believe it!

So went to see my OBGYN...my cervical length has shortened to slightly over 3...I am a bit worried bc I am not supposed to go below 2.5, but hopefully after my 17p shot tonight it will lengthen.

I probably just over did it this week with my longer shower and also playing with our baby's first ride! His stroller which is pretty cool!

Other than that my doc wants to me to ditch the stitch at 35 weeks instead of 36 or 37...in his office so it would be cheaper for us then going to l&d and doing it...so that is in 5 weeks! I am very excited!

I did not find out how big he is now but when my doc came in, our baby's knee was sticking out pretty high...found out it was his knee...lol!
