35 Weeks

Yesterday marked 35 weeks, I was gonna take a belly picture today but I am just kinda grouchy and not in the mood to have my picture taken, maybe tomorrow.

I had a doctors appointment this morning, we talked about my glucose numbers. He is having me monitor them twice a day (in the morning and 2 hours after dinner), this is because he feels it is a more accurate way to check my glucose levels since I have a family history of diabetes. So far they are nothing to be concerned about, if I get reading consistently above 90 in the morning or 120 two hours after a meal, they will treat for gestational diabetes. So far in a week I have only had one morning check over 90 and it was a 93, here is hoping that I do not meet the conditions for gestational diabetes.

My blood pressure and weight are still doing just fine, so no worries there.

He did ask that I get an ultrasound tomorrow so that they can check babies growth, and amniotic fluid levels. He is just concerned because I am consistently measuring small, and this time I actually measured a smaller than I did 2 weeks ago. I go in at 7:30am to have my ultrasound done, I am pretty excited to see her and trying to just trust that she is okay and we are just being cautious. I also figure we have made it to 35 weeks so hopefully even if she has to come early for some reason she will be okay, it will be better to know what is going on than be surprised with complications.

So all in all I think everything is okay at this point and if something is wrong we will know soon, I am glad I do not have to wait to get the ultrasound until next week.
