27 weeks and one day.

I had a check up and another ultrasound. I didn't sleep very well the night before I was so anxious to see our little man again, and I knew I'd have to do the one hour glucose test and I want so badly to just pass and not need to take the long fasting test.

Well the ultrasound was good, later in pregnancy is different, it was hard to make out what we were seeing without the tech explaining it. When he was smaller we saw more of him in the picture at once, this time he was facing in a way that was hard to see his features and we couldn't get a good profile of his face. I'm not upset about that though. At our 19 weeks ultrasound they found he had a two cord umbilical cord instead of three and he was a little on the small side of average. Also at 19 weeks they saw two small cysts in the area of his brain that makes spinal fluid, the doctor told us this was common and often they go away before birth. So this time around they can tell he's growing very well, they said his growth is more like that of 29 weeks along, they did not change our due date though. Also those little cysts are gone. So everything was good news.

The rest of the checkup was good all the things they check were fine BP, sugar/protein output, growth of the belly, and weight. I put on 4 lbs in the last 4 weeks, that makes a total of 8 lbs since the beginning. The doctor said that was good and we're doing well.

I don't know the results yet of the glucose test not sure when I'll hear about that but I'm crossing my fingers, if that comes out good not taking that long test would be so cool cause I had to do one at 10 weeks already.

Next time I better remember to make notes though, I've been good about remembering the questions I wanted to ask but this time being tired from not sleeping well the night before I was a bit absent minded and forgot to ask some questions. Oh well. If they were that important I can call the nurse.
