One would think that something important should come out of each doctor’s trip. Especially when you are pregnant. But this trip was really nothing much to think about. Shoot, I could have done it over the phone.
Well, ok….everything except the pee-in-a-cup part. 
Outside of my routine stuff (blood pressure, weight checking, peeing), the only thing this visit entailed was a short 15 minute talk with my regular female practitioner, Dr. Newman. I didn’t even had much to ask her.
She was able to go briefly over what happens during my upcoming gluclose test….which I’m scheduled to have at my next appointment – this Thursday, January 24. (Gosh, is it only a few days away already??? I didn’t realize it was so close!)
Oh – one bright spot with this particular appointment – during all of my previous appointments I had been losing weight (about 3 lbs. off of my starting weight) and that worried us. This weigh-in was differen though! I had finally gained weight – to the tune of 7 lbs. It’s no telling how much I’ve gained since then…..I knew it sure does feel like a lot though!
Ok, now, though. No chunky jokes, please. My dad has already exhausted them all on me!
