30 Week Check Up

Yesterday was my 30 week check up with Dr. Klein! I can't believe I am 3/4 of the way through my pregnancy!

Here are my stats:

Weight gain: 11 lbs (1 lb up from 2 weeks ago)

Blood pressure: 128/60

Iron: 10.9 (up from 10.3 2 weeks ago -- however, it needs to be at a 12)

Baby's heartbeat: Excellent

Size of uterus: 30 cm (right on schedule)

Side notes: Did a breast exam (because I have a history of breast cancer in my family) -- no abnormalities, Also, did a pelvic exam to check and make sure the amniotic fluid is intact -- result: cervix is low but no amniotic fluid leaking! :)  The doctor could not tell whether the baby's head is up or down but should be able to tell next visit.

Doctor's orders: Start counting kicks!  10 kicks a day is great!

Next visit in 2 weeks with Dr. T!

You are doing awesome! I'm so curious what my uterus is measuring, she said she would do that next visit. Can't wait to see you in person tomorrow!
