Here's how it went:
Wt was up only 1# again this week...WOOHOO!! That puts my total wt gain so far at 25#. However, my tummy measured 33cm (last week it was 31 weeks), so that was one week ahead. Nothing to be alarmed about, just means my lil' one is growing! And that explains all of the "stretching pains" I had all last week. My BP was fantastic...116/74! During the u/s the baby's HR was 123 bpm and she got all of her points right away. My fluid measured right on target. The tech noticed the baby doing "practice breathing" as soon as she put the wand to my belly. She said that sometimes they don't see that for 20-30 minutes. During the NST, the HR ranged from 120-160 bpm.
I got to my OB appt and ended up seeing a different doc (mine was on vacation). Anyway, she said, "Man, if all strips (referring to the NST strip they print off) were as perfect as your's, my job would be easy". SO, last week MY OB said, "Perfect", and this week, I basically got the same from a second source! I've very HAPPY about that!! An official second opinion!
I got to ask a few questions about the tubal ligation I'm planning. All in all, it was another glorious appt. Couldn't ask for better!!
