Doctor appointment yesterday
I had the 1 hour glucola test, and rhogam shot, and they also drew blood to check my hemoglobin levels. Everything is apparently looking good -they said they would call today if it wasn't. I measured 27 cm. and Landen's heart rate was 145 - 150 bpm. I also gained another 3.8 pounds, putting me at a total of 17 pounds gained and I am only at week 28. I guess it is all worth it in the end.
Mine was ordered at 22 weeks and they just told me to have it done within the following 2 weeks so that they had the results by my next appt. I also had to drink the stuff at the lab and then go back an hour later......I guess it's just different everywhere!
I have to do my test next tuesday, but i just do it at my doctors office and then have my monthly check up! That ***** that you have to go to the hospital to get yours done. I already have the stuff here and i have to take it then an hour later go to the office and they will draw my blood.
My doctor said that as long as it is with in 2 weeks for when she ordered it, it would be fine. She ordered it when I was 27 weeks 4 days and said to get it with in 2 weeks. I went that night (b/c I was already by the hospital). HTH
I have a question, My Dr ordered the glucola test at 28 weeks. Do you necessaraly have to wait untill then?
