Getting SO close!
Another GREAT appointment....
Wt was up 1# from last week. That puts my total wt gain so far at 27#. My tummy measured 36cm...right on track. My BP was still fantastic...120/70! During the u/s, the baby's HR was 146 bpm (that's the highest it's been during the u/s...but still perfectly within the normal range). She tried to sleep through the entire u/s again, but with a little poking and "buzzing" (they actually put a buzzer to your belly to wake up and startle the baby), she stirred for us. She again displayed her practice breathing and fabulous heartbeat right away (I never get tired of that wonderful sound!). During the NST, the HR ranged from 110-179 bpm....again, normal. My fluid was still on target.
I'm battling yet another cold. This has pretty much be going on for the past 8 weeks. It gets better, then worse. I'm still not sure if it's due to the pregnancy (they say you can be stuffy and congested due to the hormones), if it's allergies (apparently everyone with known allergies is complaining about how bad they are right now) or if it's an actual cold. I'm guessing the cold because Jacob and all of the kiddos at his daycare are coughing like crazy and have stuffy noses. Leave it to them to share. Thanksfully, I can take Sudafed and Benadryll which offer some relief. But when you add a stuffy nose to an already short-of-breath pregnant lady, it makes for some "fun" times.
