So yesterdays doc appointment I found out that my vaginal swab test came back possitive so now I will have to be on a iv when I go into labour.. When I had my ultrasound over a week ago my baby weighed just over 5.5lbs (already bigger then his daddy was at birth) i've gained 3lbs in the last week meaning I have gained a grand total of 27lbs!.. I feel like a fatty when I say i've gained almost 30lbs!....

What makes me soooooooooo incredibly happy is that I got my iron levels up!!! Woo hoo!!! So now I wont have to get a needle in the bum Smile

im on the low side of average.. But still.. I've saved me lil bum Smile

She probably came up positive for .Group .B .Strep. She has to get antibiotics through an iv during her labor.

This isn't a big deal. An iv won't be a bother during labor. In fact, you'll forget all about it Wink

especially after the baby comes!
