29 wk OB Appointment and Graduation Info

Today we had our 29-week OB appointment. They did the usual: weight, blood pressure, urine sample (to make sure there is no protein in it). The doctor said the glucose test came back fine, however Lindy has a low hemoglobin count (it was a 10 and the doctor said it needs to about a 12), so she has to start taking an iron supplement in addition to her prenatal vitamins. The doctor said that taking an iron supplement will often cause constipation, so she wrote down the name of something to take in case that happens :) Fun stuff!

Graduation is Saturday, May 10th, at 10:00am in the Halton Arena (on UNCC's main campus inside of the Barnhardt Student Activity Center). We were given a limited amount of tickets, but the University will have extra seating for guests who want to come but don't have a ticket: There will be an overflow viewing room adjacent to the Halton Arena where guests will be able to see and hear the commencement ceremony on a 10 ft by 14 ft video screen. All guests without a ticket should check in at the Athletic Ticket Office to be ushered to the overflow viewing room.

This week has been very sad for the family. Kristen and Justin have experienced the loss of their unborn baby and are in need of lots of prayers. We love you and are so so sorry that you have had to go through this.

Anyways, we will post again after this Sunday, which is Lindy's baby shower, and hopefully be able to post some pictures too! Our next OB appointment is May 1st (our appointments will be every 2 weeks from now until 35 weeks when they will become weekly).

Love,

Lindy, Brian, Addisyn, and Bear
