We had our 29 week appointment and he seems to be doing well although BIG! In our ultrasound in June we were told that he had really long legs... so maybe he's just a Terry and going to be tall? We have another appointment on the 27th of the month to have an ultrasound to confirm. When I googled it there were lots of reasons to measure big, most of which I've already ruled out, but it could be due to Rh incompatibility which can cause excess fluid. But I seriously need to not worry about it. All the things are relatively low... so here's hoping for a future basketball player!
Luckily, gestational diabetes was ruled out during the 1 hour glucose test and I didn't have to do the 3 hour one. Yay!
Also, we are thinking of switching hospitals from Coastal Community to Fountain Valley Regional. These are the two that my doctor delivers at. We were originally going to go with Coastal because its closer and literally next door to the Dr.'s office but after a hospital tour I changed my mind. The entire tour and class was in Spanish and Sal was whispering translations in my ear the whole time. Other classes that we wanted to take at the hospital say bilingual but will basically be the same situation. And all of the signs and everything are in Spanish. Granted, if I was concentrating I could figure it all out, but who is going to be concentrating while in labor?! Fountain Valley seems a little nicer, more English friendly, and almost ALL of their rooms are private so Sal can stay the night with me. Only 2 rooms out of 29 aren't private and you share. This will also make me feel a little better because I will know everyone walking into a room with my baby and me.
