Doctor's Appointment Yesterday

Went to the dr's office for a routine appt yesterday. It was good! I think I've gained 2 lbs, which puts me back to my starting weight. I'm really doing my best to gain at this point, and eat like there is no tomorrow (had weight loss surgery...hard to gain) so I was a bit encouraged and hope those two stick. I've gained and lost two pounds for the last 6 weeks or so, so need some good thoughts on some meat sticking! Blood pressure was 100/60, which is also something I'm keeping an eye on. I've started getting dizzy and such when I stand up so if that keeps on, I'll bring it up at my next appt.

She listened to the baby's hb, and was literally like the baby whisperer. She felt the top of my uterus, then took the doppler and put it right on the baby and we instantly heard the hb. She listened for about 3 seconds and said it sounded good. She did a colposcopy since I had an irregular pap smear during my annual back October. She said everything looked less than low grade, and didn't do a biopsy so that was good. I asked her a couple of questions about travel, and she said my csection would most like be the 9th.

What sucked, though, was that before she came in, I overheard her on the phone, which was just outside of the office and the door was cracked a bit, and she was having to call someone to tell them their down's test came back 1 in 97. So glad I didn't get that call.

The DS (Pregnant) Diaries...

I have come to the conclusion that I am going to be freaking huge this pregnancy. I haven't gained a single ounce, but I'm all belly which means I'm still technically losing weight. But my cute maternity shirts look filled out right now at 16 weeks. Ummm, how are they supposed to fit in 4 months when I'm 8 months pregnant? Also, I'm worried about not gaining enough weight. I've been increasing my carbs, eat all the time, and nothing.
