We went to the doctor today for my 5 month prenatal check up. Had the usual routine: urine sample, blood pressure and weight check. I did gain 5 pounds. Its about time too cause the last few months I was losing weight. Then we went to the exam room and our nurse came in to listen to the baby's heart rate and it was beating at a strong 147 beats. Then she measured my tummy and I am 21 centenimeters. The doctor followed and gave us the update on the ultrasound from Monday. He congratulated us on having a BOY and said the baby looked good and the fluid is great so we are good. The onle thing that did concern him was that the baby was in the 98 percentile. Normally from what everything I have been reading the baby should be at 10 ounces. Well our boy is at 14 ounces. With this being said I am scheduled to have another ultrasound in a month to measure his growth. I really hope he will not be a BIG boy!! But we will see in a month. The dr said there was nothing to be alarmed about and we'll just have to take it one month at a time.
