Because I am now paranoid and suspicious about keeping a pregnancy journal and swear never to do it again in my entire life, I have to post the particulars of my latest doctors appointment here, for posterity. It is boring, please don't feel obligated to read.
I gained 5 lbs in 4 week! I am now up 10 lbs in total and doc said that puts me back into the normal range and he is not worried about my weight. Apparently the ice cream is helping - must continue!
No signs of sugar or protein in my urin.
Blood pressure up a little but still not to 120 over 80 so nurse says very good.
Little boy's heartbeat was a strong 150 or so (doppler doesn't have automatic counter so nurse times and multiplies)
Actual doctor's visit was shortest in history, if I didn't have questions for him the sole visit would have consisted of him feeling my belly, telling me eveything was good, and asking me to come back in 4 weeks. As it was, even with my questions, the visit was no more than 3 minutes.
IPS results are in and little boy has less than 1 in 20,000 chance of down syndrome.
Doc says not to worry about bleeding. He thinks it was either miscarried twin or irritation.
I have to do gestational diabetis screening at 28 weeks.

I hope all the rest of your appointments are short and boring. You have been through enough excitement to get here, I hope the next bit of excitement is your baby boy being born!
Krista - glad everything continues to go well. Sorry it has been so long since I visited. Life has been a bit busy....
It's lovely to hear that everything is going so well. Weight gain, blood pressure and healthy baby, what could be better?
Congratulations on 28 weeks and I am glad to hear everything is going well!!!
Sounds all good to me :) Keep up the good work XXX
