26w5d

My doctor's appt went great this morning.  I arrived at 10:07 for my 10:15 appt and was out the door by 10:30.  This after registering, waiting to be called back, and then waiting for the doctor.  This is in big contrast to the appt a couple of months ago where I would wait 45 min to be called back and then another 45 min for the doctor.

My weight is 247.5 so I am only up 1.5 lb from 2 weeks ago surprisely.  This is much better than the last 2 appt where I was putting on 8-10 lb in a 3 week time span.

My bp was 128/82 - they still don't tell me the numbers, but I have learned that if they put the paper on the counter before leaving that I can see it.  At this stage in my last pregnancy my protein level was 430 and I had pre-eclampsia so it is great news that so far I have no sign of any problems, of course I still have to be seen frequently and take my bp twice daily to make sure problems don't start up.

I also found out I don't have diabetes - ya, so no doing the 3 hour test or having to change my diet and that for the u/s 2 weeks ago the baby measured in the 60 something percent :)

I have my u/s next Tuesday and then see the doctor again on Christmas eve - unfortunately his latest appt that day is 8:45am so looks like I have to get up really early that day.  I don't think this year will seem much like Christmas with having to go to the doctor's on Christmas eve and then the day after Christmas dd has a full day of therapy.  Our tree even sucks this year because dd has pulled off all the ornaments except for the ones on the top third of the tree and I am too exhausted to put up any other decorations.  Not even sure how I am going to go about wrapping all of dd's presents.  Just wrapping the 7 gifts for my family a few nights ago put a big strain on me and I could hardly move the next day.
