31 weeks!

Well I never made it back here to update...
Appointments at the hospital went well. I saw the obstetrician team first which was one of the hospital midwives and two students. One of the students tried to take my blood pressure first and she said "wow thats low, do you normally have low blood pressure?" I was like "nope, its normally really good". So she said she would retake it in 5 minutes LOL. Came out normal the second time around. So they had a bit of a talk to me, had a poke around to see if bubs was breech or not (which they think she still was) and listened to the heartbeat. I was measuring 28 weeks there. Then I saw the diabetes specialist, she was pretty impressed with how my sugar levels were looking and I don't need to go back and see her for a month! So thats great news. Then I saw the dietician and she was pretty pleased with how things were going too and she said I don't even need to change my diet a hang of a lot, maybe just modify it so that I'm eating plenty of protein with the carbs so that the sugars get released slower etc. She even said I can still eat chocolate! (just not a lot of it).

So I have a scan and another appointment at the hospital next week to check on bubs growth. Just had my normal midwife appointment today, and YAY looks like baby has turned around and is now head down!! And I have feet poking me up under my ribs lol. So that is cool, lets just hope she stays that way! No wonder I was feeling hideous all day yesterday, sooooo uncomfy and sore. She must have been turning around!

Starting antenatal classes this week so that should be interesting, DH doesnt want to go lol, but I am making him!

Had my baby shower on sunday and I got very spoilt. Had some cool games and lots of food and it was a good day. :)

Well I think that's all for now...will update again later!
