Doctor's visit was great today. My blood pressure had gone down a little bit from the last visit. I still haven't gained any weight. I do not have a UTI or any protein in my urine. The baby's heart rate was just fine (159, which old wives' tales suggest means Trashboat is a girl). My thyroid test from last time came back normal. In other words, I am having a picture perfect pregnancy.
The doc had a pretty heavy convo with me about how I was going to be monitored closely for preeclampsia, which I already knew (but really appreciate them being so vigilant about), and about doing our best to preempt any postpartum depression (which I also really appreciate as nobody even discussed the possibility with me last time I was pregnant).
My only real complaints continue to be headaches, my back hurting, abdominal aching, and trouble sleeping.
The next visit is scheduled for Feb 4 at exactly 20 weeks, so just five more weeks until we know whether she's a she or he's a he. :)
