Tomorrow we get a bonus ultrasound to make sure Julie's previously low-lying placenta has risen. If not, then she'll need a C-section because it's bad if the placenta splashes out first.
Enjoying that breakfast?
She also has the routine test for gestational diabetes. I believe she gets to drink some high fructose corn syrup or something and then they hit her knee with a rubber hammer and make sure it bounces back.
We also have a question about Julie's recently numb hands, which she googled and discovered that there is actually such a thing called pregnancy-induced carpal tunnel. It's no big deal, but I basically want to ask the doctor "Seriously?!" Okay, don't get all concerned. She can still feel them. And I have a needle and thread should they happen to fall off.
Updates on these items will be forthcoming, as I realize you will be waiting with teeth clenched--which could result in pregnancy-induced TMJ.
...and the next logical step is to create a blog about it.

I had the pregnancy induced carpal tunnel - the doctor told me to wear wrist guards - which just made me more uncomfortable - but it DOES go away - I think just a day or two after baby!!!
Ps. I loved having a c-section! HA!
