Good Morning - We just got back from the doctors this morning. The doctor did not do an ultrasound today, instead she just listened to the heartbeat. It's at 150 beats per minute which is good. She's very concerned about my blood pressure which was (and always is) high before I see the doctor. She checked it again before we left and it was where it should be. But she is still concerned and wants to keep a close eye on that. So with that said, I get the pleasure of doing a 24 hour pee test this Sunday. OH JOY! I have to pee into a container for 24 hrs and turn it in to the lab on Monday morning. They are checking my protein levels in my urine to make sure I don't have any kidney damage from my blood pressure. That's about it. Not an exciting visit except that we got to hear the heartbeat. I love that sound! Our next appointment will be on December 9th. I have to drink A LOT of water and hold it and they do an ultrasound in the X-Ray dept. I think the woman said this was so they could do some measuring of the baby. I said it's just to torture me because I don't know if I'll be able to hold 32 oz. for too long! We are in the process of making our amnio appointment now, so I'll have a date for that shortly. Then we'll have to wait 2 weeks for the results of that one. I do have the amnio class scheduled for Dec 3rd. That's it for now. Sorry I don't have any pictures to post this week. I should have something on the 9th for you. More to come shortly!
Love to all!
