I hate doing NST's. Sadly, I'm supposed to go weekly from now till I give birth. Each and every time I ago it's such a fiasco. Take for example today. All day long, little Baby Logan was rockin' and rollin' in my stomach. The minute I lay down to do my NST, he decides to go into a super long sleep cycle. Of course, after 1 hour of a steady heartbeat, but no real movement, they have to send me to do an ultrasound. So, in the end, what was supposed to be a 30 minute shin-dig, turns into a 3 hour debacle. I guess I shouldn't complain. The bio-physical ultrasound turned out great.
On a sad note, I was upgraded from normal sized blood pressure cuff, to fat girl cuff. WAHHH!!!! I'm so depressed!! They were taking my blood pressure with the normal cuff and kept on getting really high numbers like 182/80, 170/80, 160/80. One of the nurses said those numbers didn't match. Although the top number was high, the bottom one was normal, so they decided to take out the ginormous cuff (at first I thought it was a blanket. I was like...no...I'm not cold. Oh, I see it's just the fat girl cuff) and my blood pressure went to 120/80.
People, I'm officially a walking whale!!!

YOU ARE NOT A WALKING WHALE!!! And let me tell you something, I have fatter arems than you and when I go to the Dr's I still fit in normal size cuff so if they put you the bigger size cuff its for a totally different reason and its not because you are FAT!!! You are pregnant not fat. Enjoy your pregnancy and stop tormenting yourself.
