Doc Appt. 5/28

I seen the high risk doctor today and he was so nice! I think I like him more than my regular doctor, hehe. He explained everything and some and also said since my numbers are staying at the high end of the range I should go on medication. He offered me 2 different types but since I'm familiar with Metformin he prescribed me that. I go back on 6/15 to see him again and said I'll see my doc, then see him etc.. I'm fine with that and also my old doctor will be doing the c-section so thats good. He also let me peek at the baby since it had been a long time. He was adorable! I could not believe what I was seeing and hearing and I'm glad I took Audrey too cause she got her own picture of him. I really thought I was going to get an estimate of his weight but totally forgot to ask cause I was so distracted and fascinated by everything else. His head is down and his legs are up under my boobs like I had figured, there's times that he lays straight across my stomach and you can feel his butt/back right across my stomach. He also asked if we should make sure he's a boy (after asking me if I knew) so I said, YES! cause I forgot about that! and sure enough, we seen his big package floating around so now I'm fully confident and 100% sure that theres a penis growing inside of me :-)

If you look at the picture above you can see his big lips and chin! I could not believe that! he has those baby lips that I LOVE! Also, I got to hear his heartbeat which I've heard alot before and for the first time I heard him breathe! its called practice breathing that they do to mature their lungs, I didn't even know that was possible. But overall, it was a great appt. and now we have 9 weeks and 2 days to go!

Hello Third Trimester :-)

28 Weeks Pregnant

We've made it! 28 weeks or 7 months, which leaves us 11 weeks to go or 11 weeks left to sleep. I woke up really tired this morning and I started thinking about how I'm going to feel that for a LONG time once Nate comes.

We still haven't put his crib set up cause Audrey has been using his mattress on the floor b/c my mom and sister have been in her room for about 3 months now so she'll use the mattress till the end of this month. Once she's back in her room I'll put up the set and take pictures, meanwhile I can show you which one we bought.



The animals are really cute on it so we bought this one instead of the others. They kind of look alike but I like the way the animals pop on the comforter. Once I'm done with school I'm going to Big Lots to find canvas pictures that are reduced so that I can paint over them. I found that idea on youtube one night and it would be a great way to save money!

(I'll be adding the youtube clip, its probably on top somewhere)

Again, once I'm done with school and graduation, I'll be cleaning up this room and putting everything in its spot. My mom cleaned out the hall closet and it looks awesome!! She was able to clear out one whole shelf that will house things that are thrown around in my kitchen. I have everything that came out of the laundry room in my kitchen so you can imagine how that looks!

(my stomach is growling)

Well speaking of being hungry, I started my diabetic diet yesterday and it went really well. I followed it faithfully and had good numbers. What amazed me was when I woke up with a blood sugar of 84! I was proud of myself. Also, I really thought I was going to be dying of hunger and I'm not, I feel really good. Right now I'm hungry cause my time to eat lunch is coming up and I'm having a nice ground turkey burger, mmmmmm. I was supposed to see the doctor this week but I can't! I have finals this week and didn't want to be rushing here and there.

But I did see my dietican and I'll be seeing her every time I see the high risk doctor and hopefully I'll only have to see him once. If I get my sugar under control with diet then I'll be able to go back to my OG doctor. The 2 week visits start now so the time is going to fly by even quicker.
