Ultrasound

Today I had a 4D Ultrasound done but Miss Claire didn't want to cooperate so we couldn't get a good picture of her face. She was in a backroll position with her legs covering her face. We did get to see her tiny hands, arms, legs and feet. We got to see a glimpse of her face once when she was moving and her mouth was open. She showed us her girly parts a few times so she is definetly a girl. Her heart rate was 148. It was so neat to see her actually look like a baby profile now.We are going back on Jan. 18th to try again on the 4D ultrasound to see if we can see a better picture of her. Here are a few pictures from the appt today but they are blurry since the camera couldn't focus because she was moving her legs all around.

Test Reults

The doctor called me yesterday afternoon and gave me my results from the bloodwork for my glucose test. She said I passed the test. Thank God! She said the sugar level was just fine but my iron count was a little low. The hemoglobin count was 11 and should be in between the 11.5 - 15 range. The hematocrit count was 32 and should be between 34 - 44 range. Since it was low, she said I need to start taking an iron supplement each day along with my prenatal vitamins for the rest of my pregnancy. She said it was common and nothing to worry about it.

Dr. Appt

I went to the doctor today for a check up and to take my glucose test. I will not know the results from the blood work for the glucose test till Friday so we'll see if I passed it or not. The checkup was good. She was moving all around and got to hear her heartbeat. Her heartrate was 158. She is measuring on time to her due date. I gained 7 lbs. since my last appt 5 weeks ago! I guess I ate too much at Thanksgiving because I should've only gained 5 lbs (1lb/week) since my last appt. So that's a total of 11 lbs that I've gained so far. The doctor said that's good though for my weight category and considering it's the holidays. I go back to the doctor on Jan. 13th for another check up.
