My 5 pound weight gain wasn't too bad, so hopefully I am on track to only gain 25-30 pounds during the entire pregnancy. I'm keeping my fingers crossed! As of today, I've gained 14 pounds so far.
Here's how I'm looking at 23 weeks.
Reese and I are definitely growing!
Dr. Leeds-Richter said everything looked great and I'm measuring at 23. She also told me about the classes she requires Matt and I to take: A hospital tour and Baby CPR. She does not require us to take Lamaze since I plan to get an epidural. Fine with me! We also have many optional classes to choose from including Life with Baby which sounds like one I'd like to take. We've got to do more research on the hospital website to see what they offer.
I also got a flu shot. My next appointment is November 14th in the morning, and I'll also be taking the glucose test to make sure I do not have gestational diabetes. After the November appointment I'll start going every 2 weeks.
Matt and I were talking the other night about how quickly the end of this year is going to pass with our busy work schedules, baby showers and the holidays. Before we know it Reese will be here!
This weekend we are going to make a plan to get the Albans house ready to move in next April. Matt can't wait to paint Reese's room pink! I'm sure her room will be ready before anything else. We also need to fix some health and safety issues like the natural gas line that runs through the air ducts, get the plumbing checked, clean the air ducts, replace the kitchen floor, etc.
