I'm sorry I haven't updated, I really meant to after my appointment but just never got around to it. Sorry!!
Anyway, my doctors appointment on July 28 went well. Baby had a heartbeat of 148 and I was measuring a little bit behind, but nothing to be concerned about (it's normal since not every baby grows at the same pace). Everything else looked good. I had just stopped taking the Terbutaline when I went in for my appointment and I hadn't had any issues. It's now been almost two weeks since I stopped taking it and I'm doing just fine. No contractions aside from the random one here and there that is totally normal, but nothing regular or to be worried about. I notice when I do happen to get one it's because I've done too much physically or I reaaaaaaally had to pee - so I just do my best to take it easy and to not let myself have to pee that bad (usually happens in the night when I'm asleep, which is why I don't realize it). I'm glad I'm finally off of the Terbutaline, though. It mades me sooooooooo tired! I was napping constantly and couldn't stand for very long periods of time without becoming fatigued. It's nice to feel somewhat normal again!
As for now, I definitely hit a growth spurt this week!!! I usually gain 0-1 lbs each week and had only gained 18 lbs, but this week I gained FOUR POUNDS! FOUR!!! But my belly got a bit bigger as well, so it's just how it is. I hadn't gained anything in two weeks, so it's not that big of a deal. I guess I just gain in spurts... I'm also feeling much more pregnant now and it's making me crabby. lol. It's harder to do stuff, even simple stuff like getting up off of the sofa or out of bed and I just feel more hormonal and irritable. Aren't all of you glad you don't live by me right now? lol.
Alright, well that's about all for now. My next doctors appointment is on August 11 at 9:40 a.m. Nothing special, just the normal checkup.
