13 week checkup

Feb 13, 2013 16:33


Firstly, got to hear the babies heartbeat :) yeay!!!! Beautiful sound. I will get my nuchal translucency scan done next week, I can't wait to see the baby. Everything is great, I feel good overall, normal pregnant constipated and exhausted with very soar breasts but good. However, I was confused when they asked me if I could my gestational diabetes test today. I said I only had that at 28 weeks with my first two. Then they reminded me I am of advanced maternal age now (36 is old dude!) and that I am overweight, and that the risk of diabetes increases with each subsequent pregnancy, so I am considered high risk for gestational diabetes. FUN...cause I totally want to drink that Trutol orange shit 2x instead of the bad enough just one time. Gag.
Anyways :) happy things are coming along swimmingly. Happy to hear a little heartbeat.
