28 Week Appointment

My last appointment was on Friday and I had to have my blood drawn to test for gestational diabetes.  I haven't heard anything yet, and they said no news is good news, so it looks like I'm ok there!  I also had to get the Rhogam shot.  I'll probably have to get at least one more of these before I deliver, unless she comes early, and I'll need another one after she's born, unless she is also A Negative.  If I get pregnant again, these shots will help to protect the next baby in case it has a positive blood type so that my body won't see it as foreign and attack it, causing a miscarriage.
Everything else looked good at the appointment.  My next one is at the end of April and then I start going every two weeks.  For the last 4 weeks, I'll go every week until she arrives!
