Excellence In Christ

• Oct. 8, 2008 - 32-week Appointment

Posted in Pregnancy

Yesterday was my 32-week OB appointment.  All continues to progress well.  I measured on target for 32 weeks and Baby Boy's heart rate was a healthy 148 bpm again.  He continued his normal high activity as he would kick back at being poked and prodded by the doctor.  We still have our tentative c-section date for 24 November (47 days to go!).  My doctor will be on leave then, so a new doctor, who has yet to arrive, will likely be delivering the baby. 

 

My blood pressure was elevated which is the story of my life.  The nurse took it 2 times -- the first time was a whopping 152/69, the second time was 137/68... better, but no cigar.   Some good news was that my glucose tolerance test results were indeed normal.

 

I had a postpartum uterine hemmorhage 5 days after Rachel was born, so I asked if that was likely to repeat itself.  The doctor said it was something to make note of, but that there was not a greater likelihood of recurrence.  Apparently, the same goes for the SCH (subchorionic hematoma/hemmorhage) in subsequent pregnancies. 

 

My next appointment is scheduled for 28 October.  We'll be 35 weeks along by then.

 

I am continually grateful to the Lord to be able to bring good reports of this pregnancy.  I am awed by how far He has brought us through this experience. 

 

In Christ, Talya
