I just got home from my monthly doctor's checkup. Everything is going well still, his heartbeat was 135, she measured my belly for the first time, and it was in good range also. Then at the end of the appointment she said that now instead of coming every four weeks, next time I come back in three and after that every two. I didn't think it was quite time for all that yet so it is freaking me out alittle that things are moving so quickly. I was thinking that I was approaching my sixth month (even though you don't go by months, I know) but she said it was more like my seventh and that in a week and a half I'd be in my third trimester! I knew I'm due in September, but still, it's like I lost a month of preparation here!
At my next appointment I'll be up there all day. I have to drink a nasty orange sugar drink so they can test my blood for gestational diabetes, and also they are going to test my blood for antibodies. If the antibody test comes back negative, I'll have to go that evening for a Rogam shot, which I need since my blood type is a negative and Travis' is a positive, that way there won't be a problem with the baby's blood and mine mixing if they are not the same type. I think that's how it goes anyways.
We got started on the nursery finally. It's all cleaned out where our junk was in there from the time we moved in. And we, meaning Travis ;-), tore down all the wallpaper. Now it needs some drywall putty in some places, and then painted. The crib should be here this week. And I ordered the Happy Tails bedding collection, it should be here next week. I think that the room will look great when we're finally finished with it.
Here's the crib we ordered...
And as promised, here's some of my ultrasound pictures that I haven't gotten around to posting.
