I went to the doctor today. They said that everything is looking great! The nurse gave me my lab paper work to get my glucose screening done. I have to go to the lab in about three weeks for the one hour glucose test to check for gestational diabetes (it's standard procedure for all pregnancies around 28 weeks). The last time I was at the lab the guy that took my blood told me how to pass it the first time so that I don't have to do the three hour glucose test, basically stay away from simple sugars for 12 hours before the test and drink lots of water. So we'll see how that goes. They went over the results from my 20 week ultrasound and she said that everything is going good. They did tell me that my placenta attached really low, and they are going to schedule me for one more ultrasound around 32 to 34 weeks (sometime in February) to make sure that it has fixed itself by that time. Good news is, I may get some more ultrasound pictures (!!) and we will get to see the baby one more time before it's born! Other than that everything was routine. We got to hear the heartbeat, which was in the 150's and the baby was moving around the whole time. My next doctors appointment is in a month and then I start going every other week after that! It's so exciting!
