OB Appt

I knew this would be a big appt because I knew obstetrix was going to suggest a bunch of appts & bloodwork. Goodness Gracious did they!!! I had a huge list of bloodwork including another glucose test which I have an appt for on Thursday. One day I need to do an EKG at the hospital because of my history of high blood pressure which was lower today then at my last appt! Yay! I go to Tucson on the 17th to check my adrenal gland. Then the 19th I have a growth &, thankfully because I spoke up, an anatomy scan! Finally we'll know whether we're growing a chico or chica! I can not wait! 16 days when you're already 21 weeks is TORTURE!!! Mike says "they'll REALLY be able to tell if it's a boy or girl". They could already tell now! Why must I wait?!?! Grrrr! I already have 2 more growth scans scheduled for May & July.

My appt today was fine. It was quick, aside from the endless waiting in between nurse & doctor. Baby's heartbeat was 159! Yup, still girl! I will be surprised if it's a boy but I suppose I'll also be surprised if it's a girl! I'll be surprised if I'm right & I'll be surprised if I'm wrong. I'm SOOOOOOO ready to be surprised & to see our munchkin! 16 days please be tomorrow! :)

Pregnancy wise update, why not. Heartburn, oh my gosh! It's been constant the last few days. I LOVE spicy food, LOVE it, but it's killing me. There are new spicy doritos that look like tubes & they are delicious but instant heartburn. My breasts have been sore the last week or two too. Still have "kill me" nipples when I get a chill. I've felt the baby basically every day for the last 7-10 days. Last night he/she decided it was party time at bedtime. Quite distracting when you're trying to sleep. I think that's about it for symptoms. Aside from the pregnancy brain & unbalancedness. :)
