June Doctor's Appointment

The baby is perfectly normal again, YAY! The heartbeat is in the 140s, as it should be, and I'm measuring right on track. Because they've been playing with my thyroid medication this entire pregnancy and aren't perfectly happy with where I've stabilized they've recommended that I go in for non-stress tests every week until delivery. They really aren't that big of a deal- monitor the baby's heartrate for a half hour or so, but having to journey over to the children's hospital once a week is going to get old fast. But, with all the worst case scenarios that my endocrinologist threw out at me when I got pregnant, lying down in the hospital for half an hour a week for a few weeks really isn't so bad.
