Yesterday, we went for our OB check up. We went earlier than scheduled because G cannot take his leave on Tuesday next week. We cannot go on Saturday also because too has a scheduled training for the whole day. So off we went yesterday afternoon despite the heavy downpour. We got to the hospital at around 5:00 already. Good thing the OB was still around doing her rounds so we waited for her a bit.

According to her findings, baby is very active. Her heartbeat is normal and sounds healthy. I also asked regarding the tests needed. She recommended that since I don't have any other problems during pregnancy, it is okay not to have the Congenital Fetal Scan but since I wanted it, it would be an advantage. In addition, she asked me to take the Glucose test. This is to check if I am prone or I have the tendency to have Gestational Diabetes. This is my assignment before I visit her again next month. I must have the result prior to my next check up.

Being first time parents and excited ones, we also asked about the 3D/4D ultrasound. She said that the best time is between 21 weeks to 28 weeks. This is because the scan can still see the features of the baby very well. When the baby is older, the tendency is that she will already look cramped in her space.

With regards with my weight, I just gained 1 kilo from my previous weight. This is good because it only means that I may not need to take any diet pills in the future.
