OB visit

Went well. I will probably have another u/s at about 37 weeks to determine weight and length of the baby. She said with our height differences, they will probably do it, to make sure I can carry her without problems. She won't let me go long past my due date at all, so that's good to know. We also found out that if she is breeched, they will just do c-section. They don't mess with trying to turn the baby because the umbilical cord is too unpredictable, and it's not worth risking making things worse. She passed everything in the u/s wonderfully, everything looks great. My placenta has moved to the back, so if we need a c-section it's not in the way, and it's not in the way of the cervix at all. I still can't believe my body is doing so much the way it is supposed to!

I will have my glucose test at my next appointment on Dec. 13th. I go there about 9, drink the junk, have my appointment during the hour wait (it'll be with either the OB, the PA, or the new PA I don't really know), then the draw. I like that, because I'm not left to stew for an hour, and I take care of both at once. Then I'll have only one more monthly appointment before having them more often. Only variable is if the glucose test goes badly, but we'll just wait and see how it goes.
