Check up and Whooo!

I had a doctor’s appointment this morning, and every thing is great. I’ll be 6 months prego next week!! Wild. In total I’ve put on about 7 pounds. My doctor is very happy with my weight gain up until this point. Not too much, not too little. My blood pressure is good. My urine test (whatever it is) is good. The baby’s heart sounds good. I feel good. Good, good, good.

I don’t have another appointment until June 13th. I have to do some Glucose test or something like that.

And my “whooo!” note is that I found out today that one of my very good friends is having a baby in October!!! She’s been very tight lipped on the whole thing for waaay too long. She told me that she knew she was prego when I told her that I was prego. She just wanted to really be safe and make sure everything was okay before she started spreading the news. I don’t know how she held all of that in for so long. Complete opposite approach than me!! She’s having a boy.
CONGRATS TO YOU REBECCA!!!

Stage 2 Ultrasound – 5/5/08

As mentioned in a previous post, I had to go in to Boston for a stage 2 ultrasound. Everything resulted normal, so all’s good! Here are a couple of images from that appointment: *note: all image thumbnails can be clicked for a larger version

 

First Gift!!!

I had a very stressful week last week (as some of you know), and to my delight, that Friday evening I came home to my first baby gift! It really made my day.
Thanks, Gabe!!!!!!!

Phew!!!

Dave and I had to go in to Boston today for a stage 2 ultrasound at Brigham & Womens Hospital. There were some concerns with my last ultrasound of a “ventricular septal defect” and something with my placenta. After a nervous weekend, and 40 minute ultrasound today, test results came back NORMAL. So we’re in the clear! Phew! I got a few new profile shots, which I’ll post later. 

Ultrasound Video Clips – 5/1/08
