Antenatal check-up!

We are 32 weeks tomorrow!! Another milestone is reached. I have realized that for some reason, these milestones (in my head) come with even gestational weeks: 30, 32, 34 and 36. Anybody who agrees on that? :)

Yesterday, we had our 32 week ANC. Today, our dear dr. Manisha returned with a positive update. Reported blood pressure: 120/80, pulse: 84, regular fetal heart sound. N has slight edema on her legs but this is normal for the last trimester. Dr. Manisha ensured that N is feeling absolutely fine. Me happy! We are going to have an ultrasound in a few days, I think it was the 1st of December. Hoping for good news there aswell.

From 30w5d, I have been working hard with my breastfeeding preparations. This first week of pumping has resulted in increasing from ca 5 ml/day to 85ml/day. It is rather hard to find time for pumping when I work though and I'm glad that coming weekend is the last one at the hospital - for a long while. Nevertheless, I really want to thank my dear colleagues, you  are all SO supportive and kind!
