Here is what is going on so far:
I went in for a follow up anatomy scan on Thursday 6/23 (24 weeks 6 days) & the baby is healthy & doing great. I got a really good 3D picture of him that you can see very clearly. He's still measuring about alittle over 5 days ahead of schedule & weighing in at a whopping 1lb 15oz. So the Dr came in to do his final assesment & said "I'm guessing you've probably put on about 15lbs so far this pregnancy?" Me "no I've actually lost 10lbs according to my last appointment." He said well go get the glucose testing done & we'll see you back in 9 weeks to check the weight of the baby then. Then he continued to remind me that I need to not eat fast foods, fruits w/ high natural sugars, PB&J & lots of carbs. Told me to stick to fresh veggies & fresh meat (seeing how I don't eat much meat I guess tons of chicken). He kinda got me worried that the baby is going to be HUGE if I go full term & I'm scared. Now I know I started this pregnancy over weight & really don't need to gain anymore weight, but I'm trying to eat very healthy so this baby will be healthy. He said I'm probably feeding the baby the wrong stuff. Kinda makes you feel like a bad mom. Well I go for my monthly appointment w/ my regular OB next Tuesday 7/5 so we'll see if I've gained any (b/c I feel like I have) & we'll see what he has to say b/c I'm going to mention what the other doctor said to him.
Other then that I've been feeling pretty good so far this pregnancy. I am starting to get really tired faster especially chasing the twins around.
