32 Week Check Up!

I met with Dr. T yesterday for my 32 week check up!  She said I am doing great!

Here's the scoop:
Weight gain: 14 lbs (3 lb up from 2 weeks ago)

Blood pressure: 118/74

Iron: 10.8 (down by .1 from two weeks ago)

Baby's heartbeat: Excellent (Dr. T said she can tell Bella is a happy baby from her heartbeat -- not sure if this is scientific...but it makes a mommy feel good!)
Size of uterus: 32 cm (Dr. T said this puts me a little ahead of schedule)

Side notes: They are concerned about my iron levels...which should be at 12. So, I have to take an iron supplement two times a day now instead of once. AND they recommended pork chops, tomatoes, and Cheerios to help me increase my iron naturally! 
Doctor's orders: Get the iron up!

Next visit @ 34 weeks! Chris will be attending this visit because we will discuss our labor/delivery plan!
