Today I was my week 20 pregnancy apt. I was quite anxious and agitated going into it, but all in all it turned out well. Here are the highlights
-I only gained one pound in the last 5 weeks, go me. My doctor last time yelled at me for gaining a whopping 4 lbs. Lets keep in mind here that the 4 I gained last month were the 4 that I had initially LOST because of morning sickness. All totaled, I am only 1 lb heavier then when the baby was conceived 5 months ago.
-Due to the fact that I am considered "obese", the doctors wanted to do a glucose test for gestational diabetes this visit. I passed it with perfect marks, I do not have "the sugar" bitches.
-The girl I had doing my ultra sound was a student and she was down right heavy handed with the wand do-dad. My abdomen still hurts
-Little one appears healthy, weight spot on ect ect.
-Just like its Mommy, it had its legs closed during the gender check. Due to the positioning of the legs the Dr.s are about 85% certain its a Girl. Baby Modest was quite unhelpful during the exam, and they want to do a follow up ultrasound at my next apt to check the heart, at which time they will run another pass to see if we can find out gender then.
