2005-10-05 9:47 PM 20 Week Doctor Appointment Previous Entry :: Next Entry Mood: Stuffed full of meat. Read/Post Comments (0) I got up at a decent time this morning and hung around the house for awhile. After showering, eating lunch around the house, and watching some TV, my Mom and I headed over to Good Sam. When we got there Rob took us to an air conditioned lounge area where we chilled out and worked on Sudoku puzzles while I drank lots of water. I always need to get there early to drink the water I need for the pee test. A little before the appointment we headed up to the doctor's office. I peed in a cup and then waited to be called. Rob got there from work just before I was called. They weighed me (up from last time) and took my blood pressure (on the low side of normal which explains why I keep getting dizzy and near fainting). Rob, my Mom, and I then went into one of the exam rooms. Dr. Hill came in and used the doppler so my Mom could hear the baby's heartbeat. So cool. She said it sounded very good. We talked a bit and I asked her some questions and that was it. On the way out I scheduled my next appointment and got some rather nasty orange stuff I need to drink before my next appointment because they'll need to do a blood draw for the glucose test. While I should be fine since I'm rather hypoglycemic, they still need to do the gestational diabetes test as policy. After the appointment all three of us got to check out where I'll be having the baby. Rob's friends with one of the people who works in the labor and delivery area, so he was able to get us a brief tour. I'm glad we did it because I found out I'm probably going to either have to get a doula who can bring a tub with her or see if I can rent a tub for my water labor. *grumbles* I wish I would have been told this sooner. But at least I know it now. The last thing I would want would be to be in labor, get to the hospital, and then find out that their two labor pools were already in use. We then headed home. My Mom and I were in my car and Rob was in his car so we just met up back at home. We ended up going to Picanha for dinner and I'm so scary full right now. I think I have a meat baby on top of my baby. Ugh. Ate way too much. Right now I'm doing a few quick things online while my Mom watches TV. Tomorrow - the ultrasound! ----------
