Sooo, no sign of the baby yet Went to the ultrasound on Tuesday, and everything’s fine in there. Had a prenatal checkup later that day, which showed proteinuria and leukocytes in my urin. The doctor told us to come back the next day for another check, which gave the same result plus a high blood pressure, so he sent us to the hospital just to be sure. They checked the baby’s heartbeat and contractions, and took blood samples. I felt fine though, but they wanted to make sure it wasn’t preeclampsia. I was surprised to learn that I had regular contractions, though. And we could see that our little baby girl got a raised heartbeat when I had contractions, and then calmed down afterwards, and that’s good. She’s so cute, poor little thing.

I have a new appointment at the hospital on Monday, so we’ll see. At least I’ve got a feeling it’s gonna happen soon, which I didn’t before.

Christmas so far has been gooood. We’re just taking it easy, hanging around the apartment watching movies (and I’m playing my New Super Mario Bros. Wii!) and I’m trying to walk every day. Oh, and we still have got some presents under the tree, for the baby, that we decided not to open until we bring her home

Hope everybody’s having a great time — Happy holidays!
