24 Week Appointment

My ultrasound results were there - everything is good with that - no abnormalities found, and there is definitely just ONE fetus. He was breech at the ultrasound and he is still breech, which really doesn't matter since I'm having a c-section anyway.

I had my 24 week checkup with a Nurse Practitioner working with Dr. Hatcher.

Here are the stats:

Blood Pressure: 106/58

Urine: All Good

Baby's Heartbeat: Found immediately - it was strong...not sure of the exact rate

Total Weight Gain: 3.5 lbs. this month - that's 10.5 total weight gain at 24 weeks

Measurements: I am still measuring ahead, at 24 weeks along I am measuring 27 weeks

I have some edema (swelling) in my legs and hands and she said to watch it.
