I am 28 weeks today (I can't believe it!!) and I had my doctor's appointment this past Friday. It was the appt. where I did my glucose test for gestational diabetes. My appt. wasn't until 4:15pm and I wasn't able to eat any sugar or starches all day. It was actually really hard to think of breakfast, lunch & snacks that didn't have any of those ingredients! But, I managed and the results came back normal! Dr. Campbell says I'm measuring right on target and I will now be starting to go every 2 weeks instead of every 4 weeks. I can't believe it is already time to start going every 2 weeks...the end is in sight!! How exciting!!
A funny thing happened at my appt. on Friday. I had layed down for her to do a tummy check and listen to the heartbeat. She put her hand on my stomach and asked if I felt how tight my stomach was. "Of course" I thought to myself, it seems likes its always tight these days. Then she said, "you're having a contraction right now." WHAT?!? I was completely shocked! It was just a Braxton Hicks contraction but I truly didn't feel anything and I couldn't believe I was having one! She said it is very normal right now, especially when you lay down after sitting or have a full bladder (both of which I had). :) It makes me wonder how often I have those and have no idea its happening! Crazy!
A few other exciting things:
We got our baby furniture in (a month earlier than expected) and we love it! We also got our bedding in (a month earlier than expected) and we love it as well! Steve finished Cambry's room as far as the painting & baseboards go and he got the crib and dresser set up in there. I am so excited to start decorating in there!
The wood floors are finished and the furniture is all moved back into our formal living/dining room. We really like the floors a lot and are glad that project is over! Thank you to Andy & Toby for helping Steve move furniture!
It's obviously still a work in progress, but thought I'd give you readers a sneak preview! :)
