Week 17 Doctor's update

I had a doctor's appointment today. I have been able to put on 6 lbs since the last appointment. My goal was closer to 10 so I have a little make up work to do. My doctor was able to use the Doppler to hear both heartbeats for the babies today and they were both in a healthy range.  Other than not gaining enough weight, my blood pressure was excellent (118 / 77) and labs showed normal levels of protein in my urine.

I have had some weird headaches in the last month that she diagnosed as tension headaches. She gave me some stretches and the OK to use up to 1000 mg of Tylenol.  She also recommended that I start getting massages and get fitted for a maternity belt. Hopefully these will help.
