Anyway...Here is the picture from last week. It was taken at 27 weeks and 2 days.
This week was a little more exciting. I had my 28 week check-up with my doctor on Thursday. It was basically a routine visit, except I had my gestational diabetes screen. The appointment went well. The baby's heartbeat was 158 bpm and sounded nice and strong. I'm still measuring right on track for where I should be at 28 weeks. Unfortunately, I got a call on Friday night and was told that I failed the diabetes screen. I have to go back next week for a 3-hour test. I will be fasting when I go in, get my blood drawn, drink the glucola (really sweet, syrup like, fruit punch) and then get my blood drawn again each hour for the next three hours. Doesn't that sound like fun?? I'm really hoping to pass it this time. It would be easier to deal with if there was something that I could do to fix the issue, but I've been told that it's all hormonal and just happens to some women. Here's hoping for a better result this time around!
Now that we've reached the 28 week mark, my doctor visits are now every 2 weeks- I think this is starting to make things a little more real! Here is my picture for this week. It was taken at 28 weeks and two days.
After my doctor's appointment, I decided to do a little shopping. I really wanted to get an outfit to bring the baby home in, and since we don't know the gender, I bought one for each. Luckily, we can return which ever one we don't use. Jeremy and I had gone earlier in the week and he picked out the boy's outfit. When I returned to buy it on Friday, I also picked up a girl's outfit. I'm a little partial, but I think they're super cute!!!
I'll post after my visit this week- Keep praying for good test results!
