- bp was 104/64 (seems a tad low to me)
- had protein in my urine again - no swelling yet though so they don't seem real concerned
- have been having some headaches and seeing stars... they did blood work and my hemoglobin and Hct were a tad low... again nothing big, was just told to quit forgetting to take my vitamins... I always forget them! The lab told me I have the tiniest veins ever and had to draw blood from my hand... OUCH.
- gained 1lb since my last visit 4 weeks ago... my NP is not real pleased with my weight gain... I am 1lb up from my pre-pregnancy weight... I went down 5lbs in the beginning (to much puking) and now have gained 6lbs back since February.
- I was still 25 weeks pg at the time of my appt (Monday) and I measured at 29 weeks... my NP said they are ok with a measurement of 2 weeks above or below the week I'm at... I measured almost 4 weeks above where I should have been at... this kinda freaks me out... I'm planning on a late August baby I do believe.
- drank my lovely glucose test drink... chose lemon-lime this time... blaaah it was gross.
- forgot to attend a labor and delivery review class... blame it on the scatter-brained pregnant girl.
- will be attending a sibling class with Ellie in August... can't wait for that... she is going to have a blast learning about the baby... she even gets to bring a baby doll and practice diapering it!
- have been having some whoo-haa pain... in between whoo-haa #1 and whoo-haa #2 if you know what I mean... where I tore before... ouchy... it's like that little area of skin knows what is coming and it stretching and getting prepared... my NP says to "massage it"... o.u.c.h.y. not so sure about that one... I am dreading that pain again...
Overall I've been feeling pretty good. I'm much more tired last time around. But am adjusting to some life changes lately and have been chasing around a 3 year old... I didn't have either of these things during my first pregnancy. Other than the headaches, some weird restless leg issues in the evening and peeing every 2 minutes I don't have to many complaints. But I am definitely ready for September to get here!!

I think its great you are gaining weight back. I can't beleive you are so far along already. Is it crazy that I am already thinking about another??
You've only gained 1 pound and you're measuring 4 weeks ahead? WOW!
Any my doctor got on me for inadequate weight gain? You need it more than me. Nate pushed me for the past couple months to eat...eat... eat and now I gained 13 pounds. Time for this lil lady to watch her own weight. I have the same pain too. I was telling Nate and my mom the other day and they just "looked" at me like I was ridiculous. Hope all is well! Maybe I will see you next week when I come home!
