31w 2d

And ladies and gentleman we have a name for this little one! Pippa Louise! We have been kicking it around for a little more than a few days and just decided this is the name. Yay for us!

I had my OB appt. a few days ago. I have put on 7-8 pounds in 2 weeks! The doc. didn't seem concerned, especially since that really only puts me at +2 for this whole pregnancy. I was worried about possible pre-eclampsia. The sudden weight gain (despite my GD diet and daily exercise of walking a mile), plus my blood pressure was up. Granted it was only 122/82 BUT it had been running at 105/60. So it is up for me. They upped the glyburide to 2 pills at night and 1 in the morning - that is added to the metformin 3 times a day. Plus my prenatal - I am becoming quite the little pill popper at 7 pills a day now.

I go back in 2 weeks for another high rish OB appt. But next week, and on Halloween no less , I start my weekly NST's. Oh joy. BUT, the sweet check out nurse gave me my stork parking pass at my visit! Yay! No more walking a 1/2 mile in the hot sun to the OB office at the Navy Hospital.

I can hardly believe I am at the less than 10 week point. Next week this time I will be able to say, "next month"!
