Dr appt

Today was a busy day!! First off, I drank that glucose drink to be tested for gestational diabetes. It was gross. It tasted like nasty cough syrup. I thought it was gonna taste like super super sweet kool-aid, no such luck! I'm glad the bottle was small because it was hard to drink it all. I'm also glad I chose the non-carbonated one, cuz I had to drink it in 5 minutes. Carbonated would have been harder to drink fast. She had given me the bottle of it at my last appt so I was just able to drink that at work. Then I had to make sure I was at the dr office in time becuz they draw your blood exactly 1 hr after u drink it. I will know the results of that next week. I hope I pass. Otherwise you have to do the 3 hr glucose test. I've heard that one is definitely not fun.
Then I had an ultrasound to check on things. Everything is looking good. Baby is head down at the moment and according to the tech, pretty far down. She assured me that didn't mean I was going into labor or anything though. That is good to know. But obviously with still time to go, the baby can move into all types of positions & may not stay head down. I was thinking it was still breech cuz I alway feel kicks in the same place (lower abdomen). But those kicks must be fist punches instead! Baby is weighing in at 2 lbs, 4 oz. The heartbeat was 150 beats per minute. She pretty much said everything looks perfect. The baby was being a little stinker though and the tech couldn't get a good head measurement. I guess it's face was smooshed into my placenta. We did get a cute face pic though. Other than that, no good pics though.
Then I had my dr's appt. Nothing exciting to report here. I have to start counting the baby's kicks and keeping track of them. I will also now be going to the dr every 2 weeks instead of every month.
