Dr Apt Update, 31 weeks and 4 days

Went to the Dr. on Monday, forgot to post the stats.

  • Blood pressure was up a tad, but still in normal range.
  • Carson's HR was in the 130's-140's.
  • My fundal height measured 32 inches, I got excited b/c the measurement is suppose to coincide with how many weeks you are, so I was hoping I was maybe a week further along than they thought. But she said anywhere from 28 to 33 inches was normal for 31 weeks. :(
  • Weight gain was +5 lbs from the last visit which was 3 wks ago. It always concerns me but they always say I am still in the normal range.
  • She gave me the option of coming back in 2 wks or 3 wks, so I am going back in 3 wks.

Rude

Have I mentioned lately how SICK I am of rude people? This is an angry post in case you haven't caught on.

Just a few words of advice for people who aren't pregnant:

1. Don't tell a pregnant lady she is as big as a house.
2. Don't ask if she is having twins if you don't know that for sure, it IS offensive. And on top of that, don't insist that she is having twins when she tells you she isn't (this happened to me at a wedding this past weekend). The woman argued w/ me!
3. Don't tell people they look like they are ready to pop when they are not close to their due date.
4. Don't tell a pregnant woman that there is no more room in there and that she won't make it another 2 months.

Seriously, don't people know that pregnant women are emotional, sensitive and going through enough without rude comments. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK.


I have a Dr. Apt this afternoon, hopefully they will tell me that they were wrong about my due date and he could come anyday! YEAH RIGHT!

Baby Shower in Berry, AL

I had another great baby shower last weekend hosted by Cory's Mom and Aunts. We got a lot of things for Carson, and I can't wait to use it all.

This is me with the hostesses:

The Ladies on Cory's side of the family:

My mom and sister:

Me and Becca taking a belly shot:



These are the diaper bags that Cory's mom made for Carson, they turned out really good!


Cory's mom and sister also make cakes for events, they made this one for the shower, and it was very tasty as well!

Cory's mom, sisters, and sister-in-law went in together and got us our stroller and car seat, this is Cory putting it together and charlie being nosy :)

Carseat:

COMPLAINTS:
I will be 31 weeks on Saturday, and it is creeping by.......I am so exhausted from working and the commute to and from work, I don't know how much longer I can take it. My ribs hurt, and it is so hard getting comfortable at night, and just rolling over to change sides is a task. Getting up out of bed and out of a chair is uncomfortable too, just feel so much pressure from the extra weight. I don't know what my current weight gain is and I really don't care anymore b/c it just upsets me, I quit weighing myself at home couple of weeks ago. And when the nurses tell me my weight, I try not to fixate on the number I just make sure that the midwife has no concerns with it. I go back to the Dr. next Monday, was suppose to go today but didn't need to be late for work this week since my boss is out of town. They only seem to have apts at 9:30 or at 3:00. And when you work in an office environment, that is hard to do every 2 weeks.
THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TO:
We will be starting baby classes soon, and I have 2 more baby showers!

1st Baby Shower!

My friends from work, Kelly and Alison had a baby shower/luncheon for me today, it was so much fun. And Carson got a lot of needed items! Thanks ladies, I had a great time!


You can't really see it that well, but Kelly painted the letters in Carson's name to go in the nursery, I can't wait to hang them!


My friend, Georgia had pacifiers made especially for Carson, they have his name on them!






Kelly and Ali, the hostesses:



The cake, SO cute and delish!

Test Result

I passed my Glucose Test! Thank Goodness!

Tuesday, May 5, 2009

26 wks/3 days, Dr. Apt.

I had my Glucose Test today and should know the results in a couple of days. Fingers Crossed! That drink was pretty nasty...glad it was only 10 oz. I hope I don't have to do that again.

Everything else was good, blood pressure was normal, weight gain (only 1 pound) and heartbeat in the 140's. I go back in 2 weeks and at that visit I will get the Rhogam shot for the 1st time.

I will be finished with the 2nd trimester on Saturday! I am so ready for August to be here. I have done almost everything that I can do for the nursery. I have my first baby shower on Friday and can't wait to see what Carson gets!
