A good report

I went to another prenatal appt this morning. I met one of the midwives from the office that I had never seen before. She was awesome! I loved her and I truly hope and pray that she is on call when I go into labor! Now if only this baby will cooperate....

Everything looked fabulously normal with me and the baby today. Nothing out of the ordinary and nothing to be concerned about. It was a pretty boring appt, but those are the best kind! I'd rather have it that way then come home worried about all sorts of things that are going wrong. I took a glucose test 3 weeks ago that came back negative for diabetes. Praise the Lord! That's good news. I am measuring right on with my due date and my weight is still good too. I am 31 weeks and have gained 14 pounds. The goal is 25-35 overall so I'm still at a very good place. Like I said, kind of a boring trip to the doc. :)

We talked some about the method of pain control that I want to use for delivery. She was very supportive of my choice to go for an all natural, unmedicated birth. That eases my mind a lot. It helps to know that I have my doctor/midwife's support. She encouraged me a lot and said that considering David's delivery and birth story she thinks I can do it. I love kind words and encouragement!!

Only 61 days to go...
