Baby @ Week 35

Today I went for our routine checkup at the Gynae.  The boy is 35 weeks and all looks good, he's growing well and in a head down position- keep it up son! He's gain about 700g while I put on another 1 kg over the past 2 wks.  Oh and today no trace of protein in my urine - yippee! Think drinking lots of water really helps!

Gynae also did a swab for Strep B test today and results will be out in 2 weeks time. Hopefully it will be negative, unlike when I had No.1. I was diagnose as positive and was suppose to be given antibiotics during labour, but because my labour was so fast the nurses didn't administer the antibiotics.  Luckily Hazel was born healthy and with no infection what so ever. However I did read that infection in babies is very rare even if we're diagnosed positive - but of cos it would be better if result is negative so we have one less thing to worry about.

Anyway from now onwards it will be weekly visits to the clinic to check on his development! See you again next week babe!
