Our doctor after seeing the photos was slightly concerned that he might be too big for me to actually have naturally, and so she sent us to a specialist.
On May 31st, and at my 28 week mark, we went to have a special 3D ultrasound done. Of course I was hoping sweet Hubs would be able to go ... BUT we had 2 very sad things going against us.
1) It was after a Holiday {Memorial Day} and his school really looks down on vacation days after holidays.
and
2) It was only a few days until the end of the school year, and finals were being given.
SOOO ... Grandma Zonetta got to go with me to the appointment. :) {Seriously, the next best thing to my husband!!!!}
She picked me up, and snapped this photo.
28 weeks {in my new outlet mall find!}
I just look big, but there is a baby in there! ;)
We went to the specialist appointment first. Mom knows she isn't suppose to take photos, but it didn't stop her {reason 100,000 I love her ... & know I'm her daughter, haha}
My chart ... I can totally read what it says. ;)
A) Aaden is BIG. He was in the 80th percentile at this stage with lots more growing to do.
B) 80th percentile is down from 90th percentile only a few weeks earlier.
C) Is it from Gestational Diabetes, or he is just big??
Next, we went to my 28 week OBGYN appointment. I ADORE my doctor. Seriously she is the kindest and most gentle lady. I just have nothing but good things to say about her! While we were waiting for her, Mom snapped a few more illegal photos. ;)
When the doctor came in, she recommended I go and get my gluclose screening THAT DAY {because well, I had been putting it off slightly, and now I was late}. LOL
So, we left the doctors office, and went straight to the gluclose screening. The orange soda stuff is as awful as everyone says, and when I was finished drinking it I was relived I did it in the 4 minutes allowed ... I'm not sure I could of drank it a second time. {ICK!}
Good news ..
NO GESTATIONAL DIABETES
so ... Aaden is big because he is big. {Or as I like to think of it ... because I am such a good cook.} ;)
What does this mean?
We get to wait to see how big he gets and if that affects my ability for having him naturally. We shall see ...
