It has been an exciting week for us! On Thursday I had my 28 week Dr. appointment where I had to do my glucose test. I passed thank goodness! I am so glad gestational diabetes is something I do not have to deal with! I did however, get the "you are gaining weight too fast" talk from my Dr. for some reason I was not ashamed or embarrassed, I found it quite hilarious actually. It went something like this.
Dr: "What are you doing differently?"
Me: "nothing really" (lie....I eat....ALOT...not always the best things)
Dr: "Drinking milk, lots of juice, soda?"
Me: "Ew I don't like juice, I started eating cereal" (did I mention I eat close to a box a week...the smaller boxes not value size)
Dr. "Well slow it down girl"
Me: "Well before I got pregnant I was running about 10-13 miles a week training for my race. I'm not really exercising now."
Dr: "If you're not running anymore stop eating like you are, watch what you eat, and weigh yourself everyday"
Silly Dr. Street. I watch what I eat...I thoroughly inspect every bite before it goes into my mouth :)
The fun and excitement continued on Saturday...Valentine's Day! Andy and I decided that we weren't going to get each other anything for Valentine's Day this year, but go have a 3D ultrasound to see our sweet girl. I've never been a fan of 3D ultrasounds. I always thought the babies looked like aliens and that it was a complete waste of money. Well, those thoughts went out the window when it was my baby we were going to look at. And let me just say I am so glad we got one. It was amazing. We didn't get that many great pictures, and yep, some are quite alien like, but to be able to see her moving around, wiggling, opening her mouth, eating her little feet, and sucking her thumb was amazing! We weren't able to see her whole face because the little stinker couldn't get her feet out of her mouth. She's literally in my belly with her feet over her head on each side of her ears and she goes from sucking one to the other. Seeing her like that made me love her even more! I can't wait to see her, hold her, and get to know her!
Here are some pictures from our ultrasound!
