Ella update

I had another appointment this morning to check on Ella.  Things seem to be going well.  She's been very active, that's for sure!  Her heart rate was 134 bpm.  I did the glucose tolerance test where I got to drink a super sweet drink an hour before having my blood drawn to see if I have gestational diabetes.  I thought I remembered having gotten results at my appointments in the past, but this time I was out pretty soon after the blood draw, so maybe it just hadn't gone through before I left.  I didn't have GD with either Kaylee or Andy's pregnancies and don't feel much different than either of those times, so I'm not worried about the results, just don't have them yet.

Also, we scheduled the c-section date for Fri, 12/28!  (Time TBD)  My OB's husband's work schedule, and thus their holiday travel schedule, is a bit up in the air, though.  There's a slim chance it might change so that they'd leave town on the 27th instead of 29th.  She said if that happened, she'd reschedule the c-section to first thing on the 27th, then she'd leave town that afternoon (she's otherwise off that day).  But she said most likely things will stay as-is.  Either way, Ella's arrival will be in just over 10 weeks!
