So my last Dr. visit for Baby D. #3 gave me a bit of a scare...low amniotic fluid and what not. Of course to make matters worse I HAD to go on the Internet and read all the horrible things that could mean or represent; which gave me terrible anxiety!
Today we went back and his amniotic fluid is up! YAY! Not quite where it should be, but up enough that there is no major reason for concern. I will continue (or try to continue) what I am doing which is take it slow and easy, and drink a lot of water, and pray his fluid stays at a good level.
I was super excited to find out we would not need another ultrasound to check things out in 2 weeks, but it doesn't really matter because I am far along enough that I have to start going to the doctor every 2 weeks anyway...blah. Not that I don't like my doctor- he is great. I like him even more now because when he sees my 2 babies you see him smile and light up a little. It just stinks going to the doctor.
I REFUSE (I have from the beginning) to know, see, read or hear about my weight. I know I am enormous despite everyone saying "you look great!" LIES! I know it... But I will take them. This will be my last pregnancy so I am trying not to wallow in the fatness and remember that people lose a ton of weight all the time, so can I =)
I will say the indigestion this pregnancy has been brutal however I have permission to take an OTC that should really do the trick and will ideally make me stop feeling sick all the time. I have to be better about taking my vitamin and an iron supplement. I don't know why this is such a thing for me. I am sore. My girl zone aches.....like all the time....like it aches to walk. I'd get into more detail but I think you get the idea. Also, my already large boobs, are now even more engorged...GREAT!
But how can I complain? When I wasn't pregnant and I would see women who were a little part of me would be jealous. She looks so good, and cute. They make it look easy. Plus I missed that feeling of baby moving inside you. Closest you will ever be to your little one. How did I forget all the discomfort? I am doing my best to savor this pregnancy, so I won't ever feel envious again =) but I am sure I will.
Over all Baby D. #3 is happy, healthy, and very very active. We just have to decide on a first name for him. Not sure what the struggle is. We have dozens of girls names we love..not sure why a boy name is so challenging. Anyway, I am off....57 days until we meet Baby #3!!!! =)
