I am still concerned about not gaining enough weight, only up 18lbs! Doc says it's just fine though, because I am gaining weight. I have steered away from my "diet" a few days last week, because I wanted to put on more weight, been eating more ice cream...shhh!
Baby is kind of diagonal, but head is down, so half breech, hopefully that changes in the coming weeks.
We get to see the little bean again on July 11th, so we'll get to see how big he/she is, and see fluid levels, and to see if baby's head is in the down position.
Baby's heart rate was in the mid to upper 140's jumping from 143 to 148, so still hopes for a girl :)
going to start my non-stress tests at 36 weeks, and I think I'll have them weekly until the baby is born.
all in all everything is going well with the pregnancy, but today I seriously dislocated my tail bone, and it's very hard to walk, all just by taking the dogs out to go potty! I hope it heals quickly!
another appointment in 2 weeks!

33 weeks!!!
I am so sick of people saying "You're so TINY", With my son, I was on the other end of the spectrum being HUGE, and people would say "OMG! You have HOW many more months left"?? I think it gets to me a little more though this time, because sometimes I feel like people don't think I eat, when in all reality, I eat MORE, I just choose my foods wisely this time around, I pick an apple with peanut butter over a candy bar or ice cream, or I'll eat more veggies for dinner instead of loading up on pasta...Yes, it's because I have to stick to somewhat of a diet, and not everyone knows that I'm gestational diabetic, but they don't need to know! Yes, I've only gained 17 1/2 lbs so far, but I know my baby is eating healthy, and that's better for him or her than being bigger and packing the fat on the baby!
The last couple appointments the heart rate has dropped from in the 150's to the high 130's mid 140's, I'm still hoping for a girl, and I slip every so often saying she, but a part of me is thinking boy, because the heart rate is now how my son's heart rate was. I guess we'll see.
All in all, Doc said I was doing great, and my thyroid levels were still normal!
Only 7 more weeks!
