I went to the doctor for my check-up, and everything looks to be a-ok. We heard the baby's heartbeat which sounded fine, and she measured some length from my hip area up above my belly. Not really sure what that was for but she didn't say anything, so I'm sure it's fine.
I've gained 20lbs so far, which is now above normal. I was a little freaked out b/c I was right on target for weight gain, but this past month, I really gained a lot without even knowing it. I haven't been eating the best, but I didn't realize I'd put on so much. The doctor actually then told me that it's really common for women to experience sudden weight gain during this part of the pregnancy b/c my blood volume doubles so the extra weight isn't really from fat, but really from the blood. That made me feel better, but I still want to try and keep up with my exercise and everything so that I don't get too heavy and increase my risks for a C-section or an oversized baby, come delivery time!
That's all to report for now on the baby front!
