The Countdown Begins!

Those were the words of my doctor today. This is because after today's visit I will start having appointments every other week. Next appointment date is December 17th. I also have a 3D/4D sonogram appointment on December 21st. Can't wait for that one! It's been 9 weeks since we have seen the little man and by then it will have been longer! In addition to these dates we start childbirth classes next week. It is becoming busier!

The visit today was a lot more than the last visit but not too much news about Hudson. He's not quite big enough for them to feel specific body parts yet. I got to hear his heartbeat again which is always great to hear. They also measured my uterus and everything is measuring just where it should be. The extra things I had today were the gestational diabetes test and the RhoGam shot. For the gestational diabetes test I had to drink a glucose drink and then they drew my blood. The drink wasn't bad at all! It tasted most like a thawed freezer pop. (fruit punch flavor) The shot was in my bottom (gave my arm a break!) and is just a preventative measure in case my blood and Hudson's mix and he is a different Rh type than I am.

Hudson must know I am talking about him because he is moving around as I write. That or he likes the cookie dough ice cream I just ate :) (No worries I only got a pint and there is still half left!)
