We went to the doctor on Wednesday for our checkup. He was very short and to the point this time - not like the in-depth ultrasound last time - we didn't even get a picture! I know I shouldn't complain. Some people don't get an ultrasound at every visit. I guess we have been spoiled. Everything still looks good and the heart rate sounds good too, so that is all I am really worried about. Mari went with us so I am glad she got to see and hear it - even if it was for just a second.
I also had to do my glucose test to make sure I am processing sugar correctly and not at a high risk of getting diabetes during pregnancy. I had to drink a really sugary orange drink and then have my blood taken at the office. They called today and said everything was fine with the glucose test, but that I am a little anemic so they told me to start on an iron supplement.
We went to Babies R Us and Target and registered this week! It is hard to buy for someone we have never met and something we have never done before. I had a check list to make sure we got all the basics, but as far as brands and such we are pretty clueless. We talked to several parents and expecting parents in the aisles to get opinions and advice. It was fun, but pretty tiring. I am glad to have it done...one more thing off the list.
