Yesterday was a very busy day appt. wise. I had a good visit with my Dr. She said I was still measuring big (I didn't ask, I'm sure he's still at least 2 weeks bigger) but she did say if he is a bigger baby it's not because of GD because my numbers have been great. I was happy about that. :) She said that some women just have larger babies. Or perhaps my due date is wrong. :) But, I didn't say that.
Then I had to get a BPP (Bio physical profile) done. The Sonographer measures the baby and checks organs and fluid surrounding baby. It was neat to see all of his organs. I also saw his amazing heart beating away. 153 beats per minute. :) His head is VERY low. I don't want to think about how many times I'll have to go to the bathroom when he gets lower (if that's possible without giving birth to him :) ).
The next thing I had to do was a NST (non stress test). I was nervous about that being it was a pass/fail test. It was supposed to be about 20-30 min but I was in there for at least 40 min. I actually didn't mind so much, I loved listening to his heartbeat. The midwife that was at the hospital came in and said he passed with flying colors. He has plenty of fluid around him and his heart rate was great and increased the way it should when he moved around. I'm very thankful he is healthy and he passed! I'll get to do this again on Monday, but now that I know what to expect it's not so bad. :)

Great! Maybe that will be the last time you'll have to do it. :P
That would be lovely. :)
