30 Weeks!



Ok, I was 30 weeks on the 26th of March, so this post is a little late. But here's the update: I had to have another ultrasound on March 24th because they couldn't see the placenta or the baby's lips very well at the 20 week ultrasound, so I had to come back in for another one. I was sooooooo tempted to find out the sex of the baby, but I stayed strong. I just LOVE the anticipation at the end. Anyways, the baby looks great! Almost 3 pounds and my due date is still June 5th. I few weeks back, I failed my first glucose test (the test you have to take to see if you have Gestational Diabetes), so on a Sunday morning, I had to drive up to the hospital and take the 3 hour Glucose Tolerance Test. You have to drink the orange drink, then they draw your blood every hour to see if your blood sugar is too high. Well, I passed, thank goodness, so I don't have Gestational Diabetes. I was feeling pretty good until my sciatic nerve became pinched a while back. It was so painful a couple of weeks ago that I could hardly walk. Then a little over a week ago, the pain got less and now there is NO PAIN at all!!!! I was even able to do some really ugly dance moves the other night at my mom's to show how good I felt!! Let's hope it lasts. So I'm doing good, baby is doing good and we only have 2 more months! WAHOOOOO!!!!!

I'm so glad you're feeling better! You look great too. I'm glad the baby is healthy and you don't have to deal with gestational diabetes. Congrats on the 2 nieces! We're on a boy streak here...well, everyone else is...not Jake and I. :)

What a cute prego picture Heather! I had to take the 3 hour glucose tolerance test too, but like you, I passed. :) I'm glad you are feeling better now. I am feeling really great myself! How exciting for you guys that you have two brand new additions to your family - and both girls!
