22 Weeks 6 Days4th Prenatal Apt
Savannah is measuring right where she should be! I have gained a whole whopin' 3 lbs in the past month putting my grand total to 6 lbs! I compared my baby book to Brenton's and with Brenton I 4-5 lbs more at this point! So believe it or not I'm actually smaller with my 2nd! For some reason that doesn't surprise me. I am convinced Savannah will be no bigger than 7lbs!
♥ Savannah's heartbeat was at 160!
As far as my cramping goes... the doctor suggested I get on a calcium supplement to help with the leg cramps. As far as the tummy cramps she said its actually normal to cramp more with each child you have. However she said that mine sounded more like contractions. (see my 23 weeks post about Monday) So we are going to keep a close eye on it for the month. She also wants me to keep a log of when its worse to see if working and being on my feet have anything to do with it. She said that if I start showing signs of pre-labor I will def have to stop working and keep it simple. I don't think she will put me on 100% bed rest, because she knows its impossible with a 1 year old.
No Sleep is something she can do nothing for me until I'm not working anymore! ugh! You have to be able to dedicate 10-12 hrs a night if they give you medicine to help. There is just no way possible that I can do that at this point. But there is only so much you can do on little sleep. I have already noticed being sleepy, and even a little forgetful at work.
My next Apt is March 7th but I will have to change it since I totally disregarded the fact Ill be in California for my Baby Shower. So probably the week after. :)
