I had another OB appointment today with a growth ultrasound as my OB wanted his office to do one so they could see just how big the Bean is getting. I'm 28w0d today and his average measurement based on head circumference, abdominal circumference, femur length and maybe one more is 30w2d. He's now over 2 weeks ahead. His head circumference measured 32w5d! Eeek, it's a damn good thing I don't have to push that out! LOL My belly is measuring 31 weeks. His estimated weight is already 3lb 4oz. I still have 11 weeks to go of the biggest growth period. I met with the NP today as the OB was out of town, I need to call on Monday to try and get him to nail down a c/s date so my mom and I can get her flight figured out soon. Blood pressure was good, urine was clear, weight gain to date is 17lbs (3lb 4oz of that is just baby!!) so I'm very happy with all of that.
The best part of the appointment though was that I did the 1hr glucose test today. I brought my glucometer from home and checked with that right before they drew my blood. They want the number to be <140 to be passing. I am so happy to report that my number on my finger prick (which shouldn't be too far off from what the lab shows) was a mere 102. I can hardly believe it, but I'm not diabetic with this pregnancy!!!!!! Oh happy day!

Awesome!! I hear that test sucks, glad you passed with flying colors!!
Can we still call him Bean? He is getting so big and strong!
C-sections rock! With son #2 I had labor from Friday till Monday and because his head was so darned big had to end up with an emergent section...I was more than a little pissed that the docs didnt just go for that..they knew #2 was a melon head ;) #3 was a planned section and it was soooo much easier. (Of course #1 was the easiest delivery of all of them--just a short car ride :)
Congrats, glad to hear that you passed the GTT.
