Yesterday I went to the doctor. It was an okay appointment. My blood pressure was a little high- probably just because I was a little nervous. The doctor isn't worried unless it continues to go up. My weight gain was fine. I only gained a couple pounds after last months huge gain :-). I've been having a lot of braxton hicks contractions, and they seem to get closer and stronger. So she checked me to make sure nothing was going on and so far nothing is. She also did a swab that can tell if you are prone to go into early labor or not. It's not a perfect test but does give some reassurance. They called today and it was negative- good thing! His heartbeat was good and strong. Last appointment I measured 2 weeks ahead, and yesterday I was measuring 4 weeks ahead. So she scheduled an ultrasound for my next appointment in two weeks. They want to see if I'm just carrying big (which is probably the case), or if he is big, or if there is too much fluid. So we are praying for a good ultrasound and peace that he is doing well. He is still active and all else points to a healthy baby. Only 11 more weeks till my due date!
