34 Week OB Appt

Well I have come down with my first cold :( I did so well this whole 8 months combatting colds, but this one got me. I met Dr. Marks today (the only male dr) and he was very quirky...I thought he had a great sense of humor and said that since I'm this far along, it's ok for me to take a few recommended medicines to fight the symptoms. I'm going to take Actifed and Robitussin and hopefully that will work.

Everything seems to be going pretty well though. Baby seems healthy and so is my blood pressure. They took more blood from me for another iron screening. Bobby was wonderful, he skipped school today, just to hold my hand and make sure I don't pass out. I did have some bacteria in my urine which could be the beginning of an infection...so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's not. They are sending it out to the lab to verify. I've been drinking lots of water, cranberry juice and eating yogurt (hoping to avoid any infections). I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the remainder of my pregnancy stays healthy. Hopefully a good iron count and no infections. We have 6 weeks left until our due date and realistically can be having a baby anytime between 3-7 weeks! So things are getting pretty exciting. Tomorrow we are taking our New Born Care Class and on Wed. we are meeting Mya's pediatrician: Dr. Pham with Pediatric Specialists. I will keep you posted as we move through the week.

Already showing personality

So we've had an interesting couple of days....yesterday we were scheduled to have our 4D ultra sound at Excel Imaging, however our daughter did not want to cooperate. She kept her hands over her face the entire time despite me moving around, the tech shaking my belly and the mini-sugar rush I tried to give her with a pop tart. Thankfully we are rescheduled for Friday! Hopefully Mya works with us and we can see you cute little face. I will post pics if it works out. Please keep your fingers crossed.
My Doctor's appt went very well today. I met another dr...Dr. Patel and I really like her, she seems really easy going and very sweet. I only have one more Dr to meet (the token male) and then I will have seen everyone at the practice. My results came back from my glucose and iron test and I passed both! Thank God I do not have to take the 3-hour Glucose Test and thankfully I do not need iron supplements! Dr. Patel said I was the only one this week that she had results for that passed both (So that was nice to hear). Everything else was good...low blood pressure etc. The only negative thing she said was to watch the weight.....blah blah blah.
I can't help it, lately I've been starving and I'm not kidding. Bobby is sometimes afraid for his life if I don't have a snack when one of these fits come along. I think he will be more prepared from now on, when I ask for french fries...I think I will get french fries lol ; )
