I had my 25 weeks check up (it should have been a 24 week check up but with the holidays we had to wait 5 weeks between my last appointment and yesterday's appointment.)
I started my rotation between the doctor's yesterday - they do this so that the patients are comfortable with all 4 doctor's in the practice before delivery because if my doctor isn't on call that day, then one of the others will do the delivery. I met with Dr. Martin. He is the doctor who did my D&C from my MC last year. He is wonderful!
He said that he wasn't concerned at all with my weight gain (I'm up 20 pounds now and NOT happy about it!) He said that since I had lost 20 pounds to begin with, he wasn't concerned that I had gained all that back. PHEW! I was holding my breath for a good old scolding from him!
He measured me for the first time and said I am measuring 26-27 weeks - I was 25 weeks and 1 day yesterday. Hmm... big baby??
He said the pain I have been feeling in my lower right back (pretty much every time I take a step) is because the baby is almost entirely on my right side and is very low! So, he said it will probably cause pain because of where Aiden has decided to be cozy in there!
My next appointment is January 26, and after that appointment I start going every 2 weeks until the last month when I'll go every week! WOW! Time is flying!!!!
