So last time I posted I mentioned the dreaded 1 hour glucose test I had to do, well I -the one who eats so healthy and only indulges once in a rare while- missed the cut off for the sugar, after an hour of drinking that syrup, by 6 points! My doctor said it was probably being sick that threw my sugar off a little bit and she didn't think I had gestational diabetes but better safe than sorry so with that I had to partake in the 3 hour glucose test. The first hour was the worst and after that, aside from the waiting game and getting my blood drawn 4 times, it wasn't so bad and.... Drum roll please.... I PASSED!
I still don't think this little girl sleeps very much in my belly- seems like she is constantly trying to get my attention by kicking or punching me in the side (don't worry baby girl mommy doesn't forget that you're in there). We've been playing her reggae music lately, I think she likes that better than those slow heavenly lullabies lol. It will be cool to see how she reacts to different genres of music after she's born.
I put my mom in charge of picking out the outfit we will bring Hadley home in and after hours and hours of unsuccessful searching online she ended up finding a cute little outfit this weekend. She wanted something that had some sort of roses on it and that is exactly what she found.
Can't wait to see her in it!
Since I'm still feeling really good and haven't started waddling yet, I have been trying to get out and do as much as I can between work and school and I think I've been pretty successful at it. I've been fishing with Andrew (catching bigger fish than Andrew hehehe), rocking some wedges, and trying to dress up this growing baby bump as much as I can
Only 12 days left until the baby shower now.... it is flying up on us! After the shower we will build her crib and start to get all the furniture organized for our baby girl's arrival. As excited as I am for her to get here and for us to bring her home I can't help but feel like I will miss feeling her little moves and karate chops in my belly. It has been such an amazing experience so far and we are so looking forward to all the joy and love this sweet girl will bring to our little family.
In week 30/31:
My weight: Looks like I have gained between 14 and 15 pounds now
My Cravings: Still haven't experienced any major cravings. Maybe smores? I've been diggin' those lately
My Feelings: Happy, excited, hopeful, blessed, maybe a bit anxious, oh and feeling rather large these days (I think this belly grows every day)
Hope everyone has a great week :)
