Midwife appt, 26w6d
Apr. 3rd, 2007 12:36 pmI saw the midwife that I love this morning for my monthly appointment. It's nice to a) go in when I'm feeling good instead of due to some dramatic incident and b) go in and not get an ultrasound. I feel like a regular old pregnant person instead of some Complications Monster.
She said everything was perfect, perfect, perfect, which of course makes me happy, happy, happy. I had to do the glucose drink this morning which was a little sweet but since I never drink soda (or even juice really) it was kind of a little treat. I don't want to drink it every day but I just kept pretending it was orange soda. (When I was a kid I loved orange soda.) Here's hoping the numbers come back okay!
Blood pressure was good, I guess urine was good because she didn't say anything, and, get this, I only gained FOUR POUNDS last month. How is this possible? I am not going to knock it. So far since the first time I went to this midwife practice I have gained 13lbs. (11 if you start at my IUI day weight). Only 13 lbs. in 27 weeks! Amazing! She basically told me I was pretty awesome. (This is why I love her.)
Because everything was fine and dandy, she says I can have one more monthly visit before I move to bi-weeklies. I'll go back May 1st, and will be 30w6d! WOW!!

It's hard for me to believe that only a couple of years ago, at my heaviest, I weighed 14lbs. more than I weigh /right now/ at 26w6d. I could end this pregnancy right around where I started becoming the Incredible Shrinking Woman!
