I had a great appointment today! Chris took the day off to come with me as we had questions about the scheduled c-section and birth control following.
We are pretty sure we have a date, January 21, 2011. That will be finalized in about 4 weeks.
The baby is measuring large! Which is great because with Aidan they were worried because he was so small. My blood pressure has been great! One of my MOPS friends suggested increasing my protein (as I should anyway) but to get around 70 grams a day. (I don't always reach my goal but I get pretty close) My blood pressure has gotten better and today was fantastic! Yay!
The doctor doesn't think I'll end up on bedrest or need medication - Thank goodness!
Also, we decided not to get my tubes tied, just yet. I know that we are very happy with 2 kids but we are still only 30 and I don't think this is a decision that should be made while I'm pregnant. So i am going to have the Mirena IUD put in. I have a couple friends that have it and like it. So it's worth a shot, worst case, I don't like it and have it removed. But it lasts for 5 years and at that point we will know if we want more kids or not.
Then Chris and I had lunch together! :)
Chris got a gym membership at Planet Fitness and has been SO good about going to work out! I am so proud of him!
So things are great around here!

Yay for the good appointment! Sounds like this pregnancy is going really well :)
70 grams of protein a day? That's a whole lotta grams to get in, I'm not sure I could even come close :) But if it's helping, then keep up the good work!
