Hi all,

I had my ultrasound, blood test, etc done yesterday. So, here' s my update:

I have ganied 12 kgs so far.
Iron level is 12.5
Glucose level is 72.
Baby' s weight according to the scan report is 2.5 kgs, and due date is 1st August.
Baby' s head has turned down, though its not fixed as yet. His kicks have become severe in the past couple of days. And since he has changed his position, he kicks exactly near my chest. Its paining a little on my left side of my tummy, since he kicks there most of the time.
I was wondering..... does this happen to you people also?? Sometimes feel like crying because of this pain.

Guess thats the update on my side. I was just wondering, since my iron level is so high, do I still need to take my iron tablets?

Take care all of you. By the time we realise it, we will be holding our babies in our arms.

Lots of love,

It was nice to read your update. I too had my ultrasound two weeks back. The baby' s weight at that time was 2Kgs and the scan said my EDD is 7th August. Baby has turned head down. My doc said that the head will fix in a couple of weeks time.

I have gained 16Kgs till my last gynec visit (1 week back). I was quite underweight to start with so, the doctor said the weight gain was normal. Hb count is 12.3 and Glucose was around 70 or so...

My doc said that she would stop iron & calcium supplements from next week. Yes, the baby kicks quite a bit now. The other day it bumped itself nicely on my bladder and I had intense pain and so much of urge to go to the bathroom immediately :)

Yes, I am waiting for the day when I can see the lil' one.

Regards,
Anitha
