I had yet another appointment today. It started with having to drink some glucose stuff--it tasted really bad but it was a small cup so down the hatch it went. Then we got to meet Geroge, he was really entertaining. He listented to the heart (140-150) which was slightly less than previous appointments. Then he suggested that we have another ultrasound because yet again I measured about 2 weeks ahead of schedule.
so we have an ultrasound scheduled for 3/29 and then we have my 30 week appointment on 4/13. That will be the last four weeks between and should be 2 weeks from then on.
Posted by karen at March 17, 2004 09:23 PMHow many more inches did you gain in your belly? :)
Posted by: claire at March 19, 2004 09:01 AMwell, from the measurements they did at the gym in November I have gained about 7 1/2 to 8 inches. The other disturbing thing to me is that I have already gained 14 pounds which doesn't really sound like much but the midwife at my last appointment suggested that I not gain more than 20 so I don't think I will be staying in her desired range. However, I think most of the weight is in my belly and not much elsewhere.

It all happens for a reason, and will work itself out in the end :)
