December 29: Tenth Maternity Checkup @W32


We will start the weekly visits to the OB this week. Just a quick update on other maternity checkups:

November 19: Seventh Maternity Checkup @W26. FHB=154bpm. Found traces of protein in my urinalysis. Had to undergo urine culture.

December 3: Eighth Maternity Checkup @W28. FHB=145bpm. Was prescribed with antibiotics after getting urine culture results. But no worries for baby.

December 17: Ninth Maternity Checkup @W30. Had a glimpse of our growing baby at the ultrasound. Estimated weight is 1460 grams, HR=176bpm with Cephalic presentation. Sonologist said she's just in the right weight.

For this checkup, FHB=157bpm. Continue prenatal medication, blood sugar monitoring and insulin. Was advised to monitor my blood pressure and weight gain. I have gained more than twenty pounds already. And I am actually heavier than Denden. Haha! At this point, it's just right. I'll just have to watch out for sudden weight changes and a high blood pressure.

As we are getting near the "big" day, we have started discussing bits and bits of the birth plan.

Due, to Shashing's request, we had a December-cold weather-family-beach-outing before the check up. Thus the picture of me and baby on the beach.
