Appointment for the baby
Yesterday I had an appointment to check my pregnancy growth. So far this whole pregnancy I have gained a total of 1o lbs. Yay. They took the usual measurements. Heart rate for the baby: 130 which is great. Blood pressure for me: Excellent. (I didn't catch what it was or would I have understood it if I did). Measurement of the belly: looked good. I then told them about my head ache and the hemorrhoid problems I have been facing. (I don't know about the head aches, but I have been told that a lot of women get hemorrhoids after their first baby). They prescribed medications for both. I then told them about the extreme pressure I get every day and how I was afraid the baby was going to fall out. They then checked my cervix to make sure I wasn't dilating. I wasn't of course. Everything looks great they said. I wasn't very worried for this doctor appointment. I am worried about the next 2. On the 15th I have a glucose test and and Ultrasound. But by far the one that is scaring me the most is my Pediatric Cardiology one on the 21. This is the one that they check to see if the heart has been properly formed. If it hasn't then she won't even survive birth. I think everything will be ok because Evie's heart was fine. It still is a little nerve racking.
