Guest guest Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 Everything is going well on the pregnancy front. I've been super busy with all my appointments and holiday running around. Saturday is our EARLY family Christmas dinner hosted by me this year. Baby Lacie is still doing great and is on target for her size/weight. They've estimated her at 6 pounds 5 ounces right now. My sugars are still tight and I have not needed to increase my insulin (for gestational diabetes) at all (it's just a low bedtime dose) and should be able to come right off of it when I deliver. My blood pressure is perfect and still have not had to increase my pre-pregnancy bp meds. No protein or sugar in the urine either. My band is working over time with Lacie pressing up on my pouch...and even KICKING my pouch. I get full pretty quickly which is nice and I'm not gaining any weight. (Don't worry Pat...no reflux or vomitting!!! Just the normal end of pregnancy pressure on the tummy. I plan on seeing YOU 6 weeks after I deliver! smooches!) I've fluctuated 3-4 pounds the past 3 weeks and my total gain is still just 10 pounds! I'm convinced that I've lost fat during this pregnancy because I'm ALL belly and I have no edema in my legs like I did with Kylie. Tuesday 12/09 I go in for my amniocentesis at 8:30 am and then a follow up NST (fetal non-stress test). If Lacie's lungs are mature they will follow through with my c-section on Wednesday 12/10 at 1:30pm. When everything is done and I'm settled and resting in a room we'll be sure to get details to everyone via phone/text/email/etc. I'm hoping to be able to use my laptop in the hospital to pop in myself and post a newborn pic or two on Wednesday! I'll be there four nights so I get to leave some time Sunday the day before my birthday! Um, can you say delivery just in time for a DIRTY MARTINI? _________________________________________________________________ Send e-mail faster without improving your typing skills. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_acq_speed_12200\ 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
