Dr Visit

Today was my last monthly visit and first two week visit. All went well. The Dr measured my belly and is concerned about my size, except for the fact that I carry a tradition in myself to carry my babies rather small. She wants to keep an eye on it and also wants me to schedule for another ultra sound upon reaching my 36-38 week mark. As long as my measurements and weight numbers are in balance with each other, then there wont be a concern. However, if they aren't in balance then they would consider pushing my due date back. YUCK! I'm not too worried about it though. I'll be happy if I can have him before Thanksgiving and I have made that an order!
I also had my glucose testing today. I never noticed this with my other children, but apparently the sugar in the drink really took an effect on this little guy! He was so hyper..you should have seen my belly while I waited to get my blood drawn! All kinds of moving around. If effected me a little too as I realized why he couldn't sit still for even a minute I found that rather funny and started laughing. Good times!

3 months to go

Our baby is due in just three months from today! It's really hard to believe that I am starting my third trimester now. If I remember correctly, this is the one that seems endless. So I've got to keep myself busy. Bryson and McKenna are starting school one week from today and I will be spending my time making skirts for Kenna, planning her birthday, and going through all of the baby items in preparation.
I have my last monthly Dr visit next Tuesday and it's going to be that wonderful one we all seem to dread. Yep! drinking that wonderful, highly carbonated drink, on an empty stomach. Then letting them draw endless blood after an hour of having that stuff in my system. But once that's over I start my bi-weekly visits. WOW!
I have been feel pretty good for the most part. I am finding myself with more energy than before and am hungry with to-do projects that I can't do myself. I am itching to attack my yard, but that means pulling out the shovel and chain saw with moving and removing bushes. I have had to be real careful because of all the extra pains I keep getting from over-doing things. You would think I would learn my limits on this one, but to be honest it seems to be different every day; which frustrates me more than anything. I need to learn to create more balance in my life when it comes to this kind of thing. At least I know when my limits have been reached and I take the precautions of taking it easy until I feel I'm safe enough to start doing things again. Only three more months of this and it will all be worth it.
