We had another doctor's appointment today! This one was supposed to be fairly exciting...and in some cases it was...
So, I took the dreaded glucose test (a test where you have to drink this very, very, very sugary syrup and then get your finger pricked an hour later. This test is supposed to tell you if you are at risk for gestational diabetes. If you fail the one hour test, you have to come back and take the three hour version of the test...not fun I imagine!). You are supposed to get lower than a 140 to pass...I got a 121!!!! Yea!! I passed!! Rick asked our lovely nurse that we always see if she would give me a gold star. But...I guess she was out because I didn't get one. Oh well.
Our doctor was in unexpected surgery this morning so he didn't arrive until 10:00 for our 8:30 appointment. But not to worry. We had plenty of stuff to do while we were waiting including...
OUR 3D/4D ULTRASOUND!! Now...of course, this is Rick's child we are talking about here...stubborn as all get out! Just kidding honey! Our little guy was a bit camera shy this morning (I don't know how he is related to me!!) so we are going to try again on Friday to get a few better shots. But, I have included the ones we got today just so the suspense won't get too unbearable! :) You can see is right eye, his right cheek (which will of course appear on the left side of the picture :) ) and his forehead. His mouth is covered up by his umbilical cord. The umbilical cord is what got in our way the last time!! Stubborn little thing. His nose looks a little funny because it is squished up against me. To me...he looks a little like a Who. :) Isn't he a cutie!!
Here we are at 28 weeks! We are in the home stretch! We have been graduated to appointments every two weeks now instead of every 4 weeks!! Isn't that crazy?? We'll have a little person here soon!!
