7 months

Hello 3rd trimester...So glad to see you :) This weeks appointment was a little concerning...it was the glucose test. I have been very nervous about this test from the beginning. Primarily because I feel like I have a black cloud over me at times.

My nurse did her regular blood pressure test & belly measurements. She didn't say anything which she usually doesn't. So in comes another nurse taking my blood pressure again...I began to worry! Then in comes my doctor who keep in mind NEVER touches me...she only asks questions! So she "re-measured" my belly. While making a comment, "I only got 3 weeks not 4" ummm excuse me; what?!! She told me that the baby is measuring 3-4 weeks over. She was
A little concerned because my blood pressure was high (of course it was after drinking the sugary glucose drink), measuring over & swelling in my feet. So she requested an ultrasound to see the baby and check her size. I'm kind of freaking out! I have an ultrasound appointment next Friday...I sure hope everything is ok and she's just long!!

And then the call comes today that I failed the 1 hour glucose test. Maybe the cinnamon buns I had for breakfast the day before wasn't the greatest idea ;) haha! I was 10 points off from the cut off...boo! Wishing, hoping & praying I pass the 3 hour test next week.

In other news I have the greatest people around me!! I had a customer take me shopping last week and bought the stroller/carseat combo and some other things! And just today I received the swing! I am so excited to use these items! Luckily my best friend just had her baby on Tuesday, so I will be able to use them even earlier when sweet baby Grayson comes over to visit!

Is this my life....Pinch me!!!

Quick update:

Things are going well! Just nesting like crazy...trying to get it all done. The room is almost there!

My next drs appt is June 11th (7 months) which will Include my glucose test...kinda nervous!! Crossing my fingers that I'll pass.

She's moving a lot lately...enough for
Others to actually feel her :-) She responds to my husbands voice...it's kinda cute since he's gone all week and then he comes home and she still knows her daddy's voice!

Super excited for my upcoming baby shower...sometimes I feel like it is all a dream!

My friend Nicole is due any day; can't wait to hold a little one!
