6 Month Appointment

Got to meet Dr. Skinner for this appointment. She seems nice and I could see going to her for a couple more appointments. She said the heart beat sounds good, 147/min if I remember correctly. She mentioned that my weight gain was low at only 5 pounds but wasn't overly concerned since baby will be gaining a lot in 3rd trimester, which is right around the corner. She measured the belly and at about 27 weeks along, the belly was at 30 haha. I think Dr. Simmonds was on the right track with this "little" girl being in 97% percentile for size. I really want him to check, when I go back at the end of the month for my placenta check, her size to see if she is still measuring that high or if may have dropped a few percentage points. Skinner gave me paperwork for glucose test and wants it asap with baby measuring as big as she is. Hopefully that will come back negative. I go back to office May 17 for another belly check and will hopefully receive good results then. I will also at that point have to go get my shot for being a negative blood type, not looking forward to that one bit.
