Yesterday's doctor appts went very well. I started off at the hospital for a cervical length check. Improved from 2.3cm to 2.7cm with no funneling! Then I went to the lab to drink the bottle of orange glucose solution for my gestational diabetes test. During my 1 hour wait, I saw my OB who did a manual check of my cervix and a fetal fibronectin test. I was able to get a prescription for a Z-pac for my sinus cold, so hopefully that will knock it out! I'll find out the results of the fetal fibronectin today. Negative results mean there is a 98% chance of not going into labor within the next 7 days, positive results are 33% chance that you will go into labor. So the negative result is a more accurate determinant. So far, all of mine have come back negative. Assuming that this one is negative as well, I'll see the doctor again in 2 weeks and have another ultrasound, fetal fibronectin - but at that point I will be 30 weeks!!! My good friend said she is going to bring me a cake when I hit it, so I'm really looking forward to that :) I've been craving sweets again like crazy but have been refraining since I had a 9lb weight gain in a 2 week period. This checkup I only gained 1 lb over a 16 day period, so I was relieved.
Nathan update - we are still working on the potty training for pooping. He actually did a great job earlier in the week and went poop on the potty with some coaxing. We praised and rewarded him like crazy. Since then, he has been resisting again. Last night he was running in circles and we knew it was time since it had been quite a few days - but he refused to let it out despite spending nearly an hour on the potty. At bedtime, he comes out of his room "Guess what - I pooped in my pants."
Job update - should hear something today or early next week :)
