Moving into 30 weeks and starting to feel like it! I've been feeling better with heartburn lately...thank goodness!
The
past 3 weeks I also have been doing 60 minute work outs 5 days a week.
Mostly it's walking mixed with a pregnancy video. The 3rd trimester
video is so relaxing and feels like yoga. I love it! I'm hoping all
the walking will help with delivery & recovery again. I'm also
hoping all the exercise will help slow my weight gain and achieve my
weigh gain goal of 30-35 pounds. I gained 45 with Jaycee and 60 with
Hadi! Although I did lose it all, I'm hoping to keep it more under
control...but then again-if I'm craving a donut---dang it...I'm going to
eat a donut!
Last week we had a little
scare...kinda. I went to the bathroom Monday and looked in the toilet
and my pee looked pink. There was blood in it but I wasn't sure how
much. Baby boy was still very active and I'm not having any painful
contractions. I didn't want to be too scared but I also knew having
blood in this stage is not normal. I thought maybe it was because I was
working out too much. I also had horrible cramps! It felt like pms
but kinda worst. I even took Tylenol which helped a tad. Nothing else
happened the whole day. Tuesday was Jaycee birthday and again very
painful cramps. I just thought it might be because baby was growing.
But then again there wasn't any more blood. I decided to take the day
easy and rest most the day with my feet up. It did help and was fine
all day. Wednesday was a busy day with working out, normal day stuff,
our final house walk through, meeting with carpet guy to finalize
carpet, then to dinner & furniture stores to look at couches. We
were in RC Willey about 8pm and physically I was feeling worn out from
the day. I went to the bathroom with the girls and again there was
blood. It's not a ton of blood but enough that my pee is def
pink/reddish. It happened at dinner time as well and again at home. I
asked Dr. Google and with the things I was reading and seeing I believed
I had a UTI (bladder infection) I was cramping, bleeding in my urine
and a few days before I knew I had a slight yeast infection. I wasn't
hugely nervous but thought it would still be wise to call my doctor. I
was able to drive into Boise and quickly got called back. After testing
my urine it was obvious that there was an infection from my white blood
cells being so high. Also she found that there was quite a bit of
blood in my urine. They were concerned and wanted to make sure my
cervix wasn't thinning out. So we waited and got an U/S and verified
that indeed my cervix was fine. Baby boy was also fine and very
active. The technician said baby boy is very strong and has large feet
haha.
A week of antibiotics (they are strange in what they do to
me!) and I'm feeling so much better! I'm trying to keep things better
cleaned, drinking more water, more yogurt & cranberry juice and
seeing that it doesn't come back. I'm so thankful for my girls who were
soooo good through the last minute appointment and also that baby boy
is still doing fine. The human body is an amazing thing!
Monday
I had this appointment. I was nausea all morning! Then I had to gag
this down in 5 minutes. I was nervous for this apt cuz I knew it would
be longer but again, I have amazing girls! We went back in between
waiting for the drink and checked baby out and everything seems great. I
had to get a shot for whooping cough to help protect baby since he
can't get the shot first thing. Then about 20 minutes later I had my
blood drawn for the glucose. I didn't hear from the doctor so we assume
that everything is good :) Also I have all my 2 week apt scheduled
from here on out. It's getting close and I'm getting anxious!
