6 month check up
Last Friday I went in for my six month check up. I saw my regular doctor this time, I hadn't seen her for three months. I have had reservations about my new doctor just because she isn't my old doctor. I had wanted to transfer my care to an office with midwives and who knows I still might but I just felt different about this visit than any other. I felt more comfortable with my doctor. There are things I don't like, like for the fact we have discussed having a VBAC at every visit I have seen her but it was never put in the computer. She said it is now, so that is a good thing. She doesn't try to discourage it just says that she can'd induce me again which I already knew :) I do think that if she suspects this baby is going to be big that she will push for a c-section. Just because a baby is big is not a reason for a c-section. My BP was 118/68 this time, last time it was 90/62 I think or maybe the top number was even lower. I have normally low blood pressure to begin with and thankfully haven't had a problem with it either pregnancy. My swelling is pretty much nonexistant this time around, I can actually still wear shoes! At this time in my pregnancy with Annabelle I was slowly outgrowing regular tennis shoes but since it was warm and all I normally wear are flip flops that wasn't really a problem. What was a problem was when my feet wouldn't even fit in my crocs when I was 8 months pregnant. Over all this pregnancy has been so much different than my first. We will see how I feel in four more months :)
