Dr. Appt - Almost 30 Weeks

Today I had my glucose test and a checkup. I should know the glucose results next week, hopefully Monday - fingers crossed! I can't live without my sweets! :)  The checkup went well. Little lady is right on track measuring 29.5 cm (as I am 29.5 weeks along). I have gained 17lbs so far so no problem there. The heartbeat was good at 135-140bpm. We talked about our upcoming train ride to Santa Fe and Dr. Arroyo was excited for me. He didn't see any problem with a long trip and has said over and over he doesn't have any concerns and that I'm doing wonderful. He also said on my next visit (New Year's Day) we will be able to tell if she is head down. He thought she was head down today when we heard the heartbeat. So all good news:) Woohoo!!

I'm starting to feel the effects of the third trimester. Feeling very run down after and sometimes during work these days. I have been working 45hrs per week, and starting next week I will go down to 40hrs for the next month or so. After that, possibly down to 32hrs. We shall see!

Ryan and I have our Preparation for Childbirth class that is all day tomorrow, which I'm sure will be very informative. Then it is on to Christmas shopping - it is sneaking up on us so fast!

Have a great weekend everyone!

29 Weeks

This weekend we started putting the nursery together! Here are the Before Pictures:

Green wall was inherited...sorry about the unmade bed, mom

We still have things to add and make changes to, but here are some "early stages" pictures:

We will be painting the dresser white and putting a curtain where the closet door is

 Then we just need to get the crib, some framed art for the walls and we should be in business! :)

We are excited for the holiday season!!

29 Weeks!

*Next Dr. appt is coming this Friday, the 14th. I'll be taking my glucose test (fingers crossed!) and getting a regular checkup. Then I will be going every 2 weeks.
