Routine Ob/GYN appointment today: 161.5 pounds (up 1.5), BP 110/78 (a little higher than my usual, but it's been a rough coupla days), height of fundus up 2 cms, heartbeat normal. He's a wiggle boy, and I could probably identify body parts like feet and butt and head if I knew how to do that kind of thing. I definitely have hard knobs poking out at times.
In ohmigod sometimes doctors are wonderful news, mine looked at me, said, "You look awful," and called various dermatologists until they could get me an appointment today! So at 3 some lovely person will make me better, I hope. Dr. D. said steroids can be used, probably pills, and that there are ones that are known to be okay since so many pregnant women with asthma and autoimune diseases need them. So The Internets (which said steroids are a class C drug in pregnancy, i.e. use 'em only if you really really have to) are not always right. Relief may be in sight! A good thing, too - it was a horrible night, and my eye is a complete puffball. I completely did the right thing calling in sick today.
In other good news, we expect a Halloweenie! (I mean, if anyone's kid is everyone's kid at b.org, it's JZ and Hec's - we knew them before they knew each other!)
