Congratulations Lil Monster, you have achieved quite a milestone.
In our last ultrasound...here is a pic:
And here is a pic of the father...I think he looks adorable when he is asleep.
Anyway, last week there were a LOT going on that I didn't have time for anything.
Let's do a quick recap:
1. On my 20 weeks prenatal appointment I heard his/her heartbeat and everything was looking fine.
2. On Thursday, we had our 20 weeks ultrasound and Dr. Gomez insisted that the baby was REALLY big. We saw the charts and yes, is like 2 weeks ahead the rest of the average...so I got schedule for glucose testing ahead of my 28 weeks. One of the reasons of babies can be big is if mothers get gestational diabetes. Nothing really bad but you have to get in a special carb diet.
3. On Friday, big day for me. I got my US citizenship after 5 years of be living as a US resident in this country and be a role model citizen. Brad went with me on my oath ceremony. We were starving afterwards because it was schedule at 1pm and it started like in Panama at 2pm.
4. My primary OB/GYN told me to do the glucose test since Dr. Gomez was worry about the size of the baby. I have two doctors, one OB/GYN Dr. Siegel which is originally from Argentina and Dr. Gomez who is NOT from Latin America and doesn't speak Spanish that I know of. He actually looks Indian and he is my utlrasound prenatal sepcialist because I am over 35.
5. This Tuesday I got my glucose test, and I passed so I don't have any gestational diabetes and I can keep eating very healthy as I normally have been all my life.
I still don't have any "cravings". No sweets, no nothing really. So anyway, the baby is big so far. But I have been told that sometimes they just level and you get a normal weight kiddo. And that's it for now. I haven't buy anything new, but I need new tops. We are not buying anything for the baby yet either.
School will be over in less than we think and that is going to be a great relief and finally time back to us. We are starting to think on nursery themes and what to do to avoid painting since we are renting. Another thing we are thinking to move to another place too, we realize there are things won't change where we at and we can't think that things are going to get for the better there.
