32 week appointment today

Went in for my 32 week appointment today, which was pretty unremarkable. Midwife did say that I passed my glucose test (yay!), and that blood pressure and belly measurements are right where they need to be, and baby's heart rate was 137. My lab work showed that I'm slightly anemic, but she said that she'd prefer me to get more iron through diet rather than supplements, if possible, since iron supplements can make you feel all sorts of funky (which I definitely agree with!). So I'll be trying to eat as many green leafy veggies as possible, since meat hasn't really been all that appetizing to me lately. But I have been crazy tired lately, which I just chalked up to third trimester fatigue, but maybe if I get a little more iron it won't be quite as bad. Other than that, all looks good, and I'm back in two weeks for another appointment and u/s to check on baby's bowels. Happy for another boring appointment, hopefully they stay like this!
