I know, it's been almost a week since my Dr. visit, but hey, I've been busy! Visit was on Friday, got to hear the heartbeat again and it was in the 150s like usual. As expected, it was a pee in a cup, listen to heartbeat, measure fundal height, ask if there's any questions type of visit.
The weekend was a bit more eventful. I was exhausted for some odd reason and everytime I tried to carry my 16 month old somewhere with bit of distance, my back ached (no huge surprise) and my belly hurt in an odd pressure/pulling way that I've never experienced before. I just dealt with it Saturday, thinking it would stop on it's own. It was still bothering me on Sunday so I mentioned something to Emily (who had been dealing with some sort of virus since Wednesday and today is finally back to her usual routine)and she had me call the OB department. The nurse said it's probably nothing, but Emily was a bit uneasy still. The nurse had told me that the on-call doc was coming in that evening for another patient, so she said if the doc hadn't been in by suppertime, she would have her call me. Doc basically said it's probably just my muscles groaning because my body didn't have as much time to recover between pregnancies as it did last time and last time I didn't have a toddler to carry around, so it's probably nothing, but if I wanted my cervix checked, she would be more than happy to do that to ease everyone's minds. Long story short, Emily decided she would prefer if the doc looked at me, just to be safe. I went in, got checked in and she checked me and the nurse listened to the heartbeat, still in the 150s. Doc said my cervix was high, long and closed. All good.
Anyway, that's been my adventures of late. Monday is the anatomy ultrasound, and we're hoping the little one will cooperate so we know if we should call it Dorothy or Hunk!!! I'll be sure to update within a day of that!!! Have a great week everyone!!
