We had our ob appointment today coupled with my post op check up. My incision is healing nicely. The PA was a lovely girl named Sarah. "She had so much energy", I said to M. To which he replied--"Everyone seems to have a lot of energy to you." I laughed. True. But she had more. She took of my steri strips (I wanted to peel them off yesterday but M wouldn't let me). She asked if I was having any problems and I told her about the pressure on my bum and painful passing of gas--sorry tmi. She told me to take a stool softener, keep drinking water, eating greens and fruits and take a sitz bath (sitting in warm water).
She had the Doppler and found the first baby, who was on my left, who had a heartbeat of 160. She had trouble with the next baby because he/she was moving around. Finally that heartbeat was 150. It was amazing to hear their heartbeats. I have been feeling them flutter around now for about two weeks. I hadn't felt them in the past two days. It makes me nervous because I don't have anything else to go on. They aren't big enough that you can feel them kick. It was very reassuring to hear them.
I go next week for my glucose test and I have another ob appointment in two weeks.
We are still waiting for the high risk office to call us for our appointment with them. I was told I will be seeing them the first week in July. That's when we will have the level II us. And that means finding out the gender!
