Today was our 20 week appt! Other than gaining almost 6 lbs in the last month (darn you Pizza and Pasta cravings), everything is progressing quite well.
During our appt this morning my OB mentioned he would like to start seeing us every two weeks, to be on the safe side.
Also, it appears if I will need to be induced if I would like to have any type of epidural during delivery, since the medication I am on (Lovenox) lasts for 24 hours in the system and they cannot do an epidural when on the medication. Normally, they would put me on Heparin which has a shorter shelf life in the system around 36 weeks. But apparently there is some shortage of Heparin ... thanks China.
After the appointment was our ultrasound. Looks like baby McBride is progressing right on target - measuring 2 days ahead at 20 weeks and 3 days.
And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for. Baby ultrasound pics. Yes, there is a bit of a hint as to the gender in the pics. See if you keen senses (and or reading ability) can figure it out ...
