Midwife Tania
Tania was actually the midwife on staff when I went into labor with Garrett, but she was on the last few hours of her shift so I barely saw her. When I told her that, she was like, oh I probably was super tired at that point. Ya think? I got there around 3 in the morning. They switch midwives every 24 hours at 7 AM.
Normal appointment. I had to remind everyone that I don't know what the gender is yet so no one accidently mentioned it. One more week until we find out.
When I was getting on the table to hear the heartbeat, she saw my legs and asked me what I was doing. I told her T25 and she said "pregnant?" LOL. When I let her know that I was doing the modified low intensity version she was much happier. Made my day!
Denied more testing today. I asked about the really short sonogram and she said that she knows he is good and he is good at looking at everything fast. So I asked her if everything was normal and she said yes, but she would try to book me for a regular OB sonogram if I wanted. No need, just wanted to be sure since he just poked around and didn't say much. She said I measured exactly to date on the sonogram so my due date stands.
Baby's heartbeat was 142 and I had my first stomach measurement today. Measured exactly 19 weeks, so all you people that think I am growing too fast are wrong. She did ask me if I was worried about my weight gain and I'm not. I have gained more than normal, but I maintain it is my weight lifting schedule and that is what I'm sticking with.
Next appointment is in 4 weeks and then 4 weeks after that I have my appointment and glucose test.
This week's craving: Luigi's Strawberry Italian Ice
Garrett pulls my shirt up every night now, pats it and says "ball!" Good times :)
Pretty much 20 weeks till we have a baby and Christmas is here.
