We finally made it to the 3rd trimester! Yesterday Doug and I went in for the glucola test to see if I have gestational diabetes. The drink was awful and made me feel icky but fortunately it came back negative and I have no GD! Yeah! We also meet with the doctor yesterday. He checked the heartbeat which was great and he also measured my belly. The doctor told me that I was measuring at 33 weeks not 29! I was kinda freaked out but he said not to be concerned and that its normal for short first time mommies to carry big. Yeah for me. :) Also my blood pressure was perfect so all and all everything looks great and we are estimating about 8 more weeks and then the excitement begins! I was in Indiana last month for my baby shower which was amazing! We got such great gifts and it was so nice to see everyone. Also while I was there Doug, Baby, and I got our pregnancy pictures taken by our family friend who is an awesome photographer, Candace Murphy. I will post a few of my favs on this blog. Doug and I are also busy with our birth preparation classes. So far we have taken Off to a good start, Caring for Baby, Car seat safety, and breastfeeding. Next week we have Dads class and then CPR and Birth Preparation. We have had a lot of knowledge poured into us and at times it has been pretty overwhelming but hopefully will all be useful. We are now down to going in for checkups every two weeks so I will keep everyone updated till the very end!
