This past week has been full of baby stuff. On Weds. I had my one hour glucose screen, my 28 week OB appt and our follow up 3D/4D ultrasound. I worked all morning then went to the glucose test at 1:30. The drink was disgusting and I felt sick the entire time, but they said if I throw up I have to start over another day, so I muscled through. Found out Thursday that I failed-AWESOME! At my OB appt my bp was a little high but not too bad and I was measuring 30 weeks. By the time our ultrasound rolled around I felt terrible from skipping lunch and miss Caroline wasn't very pleased with me and hid her face. 



I did my follow up 3 hour glucose tolerance test Saturday morning. You have to fast for 12 hours before, get a fasting blood draw, drink twice the amount of yummy drink and get blood draws every hour for three hours. I brought music this time and it went by relatively fast. I didn't feel at bad during the test either. But five venipuncture sticks in my arms in 3 days has left me bruised. I am still waiting on my results, so hopefully I will pass. Here is my newest belly pic...I am huge!

I have been feeling pretty good still, but she has been so active lately that I am not sleeping well. Last night she woke me up about three times doing cheerleading routines in my belly. Today I noticed I have circles under my eyes-cute! I am getting really excited about her getting here, especially working pediatrics this month. I have discovered how much I DON'T know about being a mom! I am using this month to try to learn as much as I can and I need to buy some books on taking care of baby!
