JOURNAL 3rd doctor's appointmentposted on 08/24/2007 I had my 3rd (16 week) doctor's appointment today. I still have not gained any weight (I have lost 8lbs so far), but the nurse told me that it was ok for now. I was given the hospitals pre-admission packet to mail in by my next appointment. The nurse also told me that my registration forms for the classes (breastfeeding and childbirth) need to be in by my next appointment. My blood pressure was 120/70 and the baby's heartbeat was in the low 140's. I asked her when she will begin to check the fundal height, and she said beginning next month. She gave me the referal for my 20 week ultrasound to find out the baby's gender, and another to get the rest of the necessary blood work done. My next doctor's appointment is September 19th and I'll be exactly 20 weeks. |
