Dr. appointment

I forgot to put my doctor update on when I updated the blog this weekend.

I went to the Dr. on Wed. the 26th. Just a normal routine check up: weight, BP, heart rate, do you have any questions, and done!

My blood pressure remains good (110/68) as it did when I was pregnant with Cooper. The baby's heart rate was exactly the same as last time, 152. So, do I have any questions.....YES!!!! I want to know why I am gaining so much weight this time. I have already gained 9 lbs. in 20 weeks. At this time with Cooper I had only gained 4. I told Dr. Kemp: I don't have a desk job this time, I am MUCH MORE conscious of what I eat, I do zumba twice a week and play volleyball once a week, and yet I am still putting weight on faster than I would like. He looked at my chart and I could tell by the look on his face he was shocked at the number. We talked for a little bit and he said, "well, it sounds like you are doing everything right, just some babies are different than others." I will just hope that this pregnancy I put the weight on early, but it will tail off towards the end. I don't think I can go threw gaining 40 lbs. again....that was tough!!!!

I have scheduled the sonogram for the 22nd of Dec. I could have done it earlier, but I asked if I could put it off until then since I will be out of school for Christmas break. Joshua and I have chosen once again not find out the sex of the baby. I am convinced (in case you wanted to know) that this one IS a girl.....however, we thought that last time!!!!
