I went to the doctor today for a normal check-up and everything looks great! The girl's heartbeats were strong and steady. I am measuring at 26 weeks (I am only 23 weeks), so that is only 3 weeks ahead which they say is right on schedule. My blood pressure was slightly high but nothing to worry about.
It's official, I've gained weight! As of my last appointment in July, I had only gained back the weight that I had lost from being so sick. As of today, I've gained 4 lbs. Not too bad for being 6 months pregnant. The doctors are fine with my weight gain because the babies are healthy and gaining weight right on schedule as well.
Next week we have another ultrasound and will continue on a schedule of ultrasounds every 4 weeks for growth scan purposes. I will also begin going to the doctor every 2 weeks for check ups because I am at such high risk for pre-term labor.
Then on top of all that, in 2 weeks I have to do the nasty glucose test. It's only nasty because you have to drink this bottle of orange junk. Hopefully I pass because if I fail....I have to do it AGAIN!
