i had my 30 week appt today. I was happy to have lost 1 1/2lbs, thanks to the insulin and strict diet.   The dr noted that my c-section is scheduled for 39 weeks. She thinks they will do it at 38 weeks instead but said we’ll wait a little longer to watch my sugars and how the weekly biophysical profiles and non stress tests go.  But she seemed almost set on changing the date there at first, so I’m guessing that’s what is going to happen. Boaz was born at 38 weeks so I know the baby will be fine, not to mention at that point I was already 3 cm dilated w/ Bo so I’m guessing I’ll be earlier than 39 weeks with this one too.  But that fact is scary, I mean before this appt I thought I had 9 weeks left, changing it to 8 weeks means the end of march, hey it’s already February!!! It set in that this kid will be here very soon!!!
I see the endo. on Monday, his email yesterday to call him was because he was concerned with my amt of throwing up, i told him I’m used to it and that this has been better than the other 2 pregnancies as far as that goes. but my m/s is definitely back in full force so I’m grateful to cut a week of of being pregnant if I can!  so he just wanted to make sure i knew to at least drink carbs/calories if I”m throwing up and cant keep in my food since with being on insulin I need to keep food in my system.  It’s so cool to have a good dr that is so on top of things though.  It makes me much more confident about the care i’m getting than I got last time for my diabetes.  My first pregnancy was pretty good to as far as care, I loved my specialist for that pregnancy!  I’m glad that I am able to see this dr for this one though, so far other than having to wait to be seen a few times it’s been great.   the ob’s office has been great to, considering it’s not a high risk ob and all the crap I have during pregnancies.  So the single digit week countdown is on folks, and I’m so excited, and scared, and freaked out….yeah happy and afraid at the same time, crazy but that’s pregnancy for you.  I cant believe I might be having this kid before April!   I’m excited that my next ultrasound is in 2 weeks, it seems like forever since i’ve had one. Dean’s taking off to go, I want him to be at least one more, and this one will be at the drs office and i love their u/s tech so she’s always great about sharing stuff with us, as opposed to the dumb radiology place I was having to go to. She said because of the diabetes and them being weekly biophysical profiles, they just have to get authorization from the insurance and i can get them done at the office, a huge answer to prayer! I was dreading having to go to the other lab and then the ob’s office, I can take Bo with me to get u/s at the ob’s but kids arent allowed at the other place, so it will be much easier. But I might still need a sitter for the non stress tests.
well I have tons to do since we’re hosting a game night at our house tonight, email me if you want to come over! (and you’re not some crazy stalker type stranger then well too bad!!) gonna post a 30 week preggo pic later once I get it uploaded…
