Week 29 App

Today Doug, Baby B and I went to the doctors. We had our appointment at 8:45am, so we did not have to wait very long to get to see the doctor.  We did not have an ultrasound this time..so I can not tell you about any exciting movements or how big B is. I have now finally surpassed the weight I lost in the beginning of the pregnancy. I now am 212lbs...which for me is not too bad at all. I am purely all baby B.

The doctor measured my tummy..took my blood pressure reading and listened to the heartbeat. Everything is both normal and average. He asked about if we have had the blood sugar test done and we have. If we have learned anything from how long we have seen this specialist..if he does not normally say anything if everything is good. So he looked in his folder and did not say much. I am guessing that means that everything is great.

A couple of weeks ago I had some spells where I was feeling like I was overheated and going to pass out/ black out at work.  I told him about it..and that it had happened a couple more times during different situations that week. He explained it is quite common and normal..pre-blackout..a way the body tells you to calm down and cool off. Walking to work is becoming a harder task. I now sound like I have asthma before I get all the way to work. It is also probably due to the fact that I am getting a head cold. Which seems to be really running my body down. I have made it this far without getting sick at all....I have less than 10 weeks and 2 days left and I am getting sick. Good thing I can take Tylenol products or working may be difficult..my head is feeling like a balloon.

While we were there he also did a swab to make sure I do not have an infection. I have not had to see the duck lips in a while..I have to say I did not miss them at all. Kinda nice to be measured by a measuring tape in length and not width..lol. Things are all looking really good according to the doctor.

I have to go back in two weeks. November 9th is my next appointment. You know it is really getting down in time when you start going every two weeks to see the doctor. After this Saturday I will have 10 weeks until my due date..Crazy how time is flying by.

So much to do in so little of time.
