DR.'s Visit - 4/22/13

This morning we went for our 32 week checkup.  When Dr. Richter walked in she said it was going to be a boring visit, but we always like to hear the heartbeat.  William's heartbeat was 146 BPM and I am measuring at 33 cm. 

We go on May 9th for our 34 week ultrasound and checkup, this time it will be in 3D.  We can't wait to get to see William again!

CPR, Hospital Tour & Dr.'s Visit - 4/8/13

What a busy past couple of weeks we have had.  We took the baby CPR class one Saturday and toured the hospital the next.  We are now officially registered at The Woman's Hospital for William's birth. 

On my birthday we had our 30 week doctor's visit, this visit went pretty quick.  His heartbeat was 144 BPM and she measured my stomach, weighed me (I've only gained 11 lbs YAY!) and we were out the door.  Unfortunately not to go home, but to go to the three hour glucose test since I failed the first one.  We headed down to Fannin and there we sat from 9:50-12:50.  The red liquid i had to drink was not tasty, the first one I took was orange and it tasted like Sunkist and was not bad at all.  So there we sat, IPads in hand playing Cribbage back and forth. (I am very lucky to have a husband that can go to all of these visits with me!).  What a wonderful way to spend your birthday everyone kept telling me..NOT!  After that was over we went to lunch and I was pooped so I took a nap and Pablo headed off to work.

Later that week I found out I passed the second part of the test, thank goodness!!

We go back on 4/22/13 for our 32 week check up and then May 9th we have our last ultrasound and start going to the doctor weekly.  Time is flying by, I can't believe I am already 31 weeks, only 9 weeks to go!

What a wonderful year this has turned out to be; new house, new baby, starting a whole new chapter in our lives....I just can't wait to see what the future holds for us :)
