I had my 32 week appt today and all was well.\u00a0 It was a very uneventful visit, so that’s good – everything looked fine and my BP was a little high again, but since I seem to show a pattern of one visit high, the next visit normal, they aren’t concerned.\u00a0 I don’t have any swelling or headaches, and no protein in my urine, so no other signs that there is any problem.\u00a0 I got praised for my excellent weight gain, and told that I am very healthy!\u00a0 I love passing tests.\u00a0 Sandra, the midwife, was able to feel that the baby was still head down, and she was able to pick up a butt, a head and an arm during her poking around.\u00a0 And while she was checking his heart rate, he gave a couple of good kicks that made the doppler unit bounce, and she was able to tell that when he kicked his heart rate went up, which is exactly what you want to happen.\u00a0 It indicates he’s got good oxygen flow.\u00a0 I go back in 2 weeks for the next visit…<\/p>\n
Other than that, not a lot to report on, so this is just a quick update post.<\/p>\n
(Although I did manage to get the new baseboards and the clothing rod for the closet painted this weekend (outside, with very good ventilation), and Scott tore off all the old baseboards and pulled up the tack strip, so now he just needs to secure the existing plywood boards down tighter to eliminate the squeaking, and we’re on to new floor installation!)<\/p>\n
