So I went to the doctor Wednesday and they we're so thrilled my blood pressure was WAY down (108/68) ..... WOOHOO!!! That's great news. Now to just keep it down without raising my medication doses would be great. Currently I'm taking a baby dose of Aldomet, so she's hoping to keep me on that. They also think I'll need to be monitored after the baby to make sure it goes down. Fun Fun!!
Well on to more exciting news.....
I was laying on the table so we could do the Dopplar thing and hear the heartbeat. She had the wand right over top of the baby and we were hearing it's heartbeat really good. When all of sudden I nearly jumped off the table ... that little booger kicked/pushed at the wand!!! It was an interesting feeling but painful at the same time. She said yeh they can feel something on the belly so they'll kick/push at them. After that it had flipped over to the left side and she was able to get a good heartbeat reading of 154 bpm. That was actually very exciting to feel it do that. I still laugh about...
I also have to go have the AFP blood work done to check for Downs Syndrome. That's always a little nerve racking...so just pray for the best!!
Not too much else... that was the excitement for the appointment!!!
Oh yeah on a finally note: I'll be going back February 5th for the ultrasound to hopefully determine the gender!!! BOY or GIRL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
YAY THREE WEEKS -- We can't wait!!!
