Going to the Doctor

I feel like we should update since we went to the doctor yesterday, but really the most interesting thing about these doctor’s visits is how little actually happens at them. I don’t know what I expected, but certainly not the 5-minute listen to the heartbeat, measure my belly a couple different ways, ask how I’m feeling, and then “see you in a month.” Although yesterday we did have the addition of the glucose test where I had to drink basically over-sugared kool-aid, wait an hour, and have blood drawn. But that is only the second “test” we’ve had done, not counting the two sonograms. And apparently there is only one more test and no more sonograms left on the schedule. That is, of course, unless they see some reason to worry. We’re now onto an every two week schedule just because that is the routine for the third trimester, but if all goes well they will continue to be 5-minute heartbeat and measurement sessions. So here is hoping for a continuation of boring doctor’s visits with nothing worth reporting.
