I am in the 90% but proceed with caution

For those of you not keeping up read this post first. My ultrasound and doctor appointment was moved up a week and I just got back. My placenta has fixed itself, HOORAY!! I do not have gestational diabetes, but as the midwife stated I FAILED the iron screen. Its probably because I do not eat red meat. I am going on daily iron pills.

Little Clint is still little Clint. The Rad Tech confirmed it once again during the ultrasound. We even have a picture of the "cash and prizes" shot. I feel that somethings should be kept somewhat private so that will not be be posted, plus I think posting it might make some men jealous and quite possibly border on child pornography. He still has a strong heartbeat 144. Per the Rad Tech he apparently has big feet. Which would explain all the excessive kicking around in there ... he has no room and he is very very busy.

One small morsel of bad news ... my midwife feels it would be better to restrict my travel at this point in the pregnancy because I am now in the third trimester it is a little too risky to have me traveling for soooo long in a car. While a little relieved that I will not be far away during this time, I also feel like I am letting down the team. I am hoping to work out a plan with my boss to help with accommodating this restriction.
