Monthly Check Up 5/19

I went in for my monthly check up on Thursday and even though I didn't get to see the baby, the appointment turned out to be pretty informative.  I only gained 1 lb since my last appointment, which surprisingly the doctor was a little upset about it because she wanted me to gain more.  I don't see that being a problem in the future....LOL  I also learned that I will be having a c-section.  I was told to plan on around November 7th.  The actual date will be scheduled at my next appointment on June 16th.  At that appointment we will find out the sex of the baby (yeah!) and schedule my c-section. The doctor wants to see the size of the baby to make sure my due date is not ahead or behind schedule.  She will do the c-section no later than 39 weeks.   My doctor did the Doppler and we heard the baby's heartbeat which was 160bpm.  My doctor said everything looks good.  Whew!  Now the dreaded 4 week wait starts again......
