Well, I'm 34 weeks 4 days by my count, but he keeps saying 34 weeks 5 days - so we'll say both. Here are the top three highlights from today's OB visit:
1. My blood sugar got super-low while I was waiting for my appointment, and so there was this whole drama with getting me juice and everything, since I was about to pass out.
2. My OB gave me a fist bump. I didn't want to leave him hanging, so I made the little explosion sound to humor myself.
3. On the way home, I got a roast beef from Arby's to try and get blood sugar up, and I'm pretty sure I ate part of the tin foil wrapper on accident. Maybe I wasn't ready to drive myself home when my husband called me from work.
The appointment went well other than that, in a much less remarkable fashion. I gained only 1 lb., and am measuring 33 weeks - but that's up a cm from last week, so I consider it a victory. The u/s went well - lost about .25 cm of cervical length, but that's expected with as effaced as I am. Baby A looked great - 143 bpm, and plenty of fluid. This was our last ever ultrasound with her, which is a little sad - but so happy at the same time to know that we're past the danger zone where we need those.
