SO I AM 20 WEEKS 4 DAYS TODAY AND YESTERDAY WE HAD OUR LEVEL 2 SONO. SHE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A BANANA BUT IS MEASURING 6 DAYS AHEAD WHICH SHOULD MAKE HER A POMEGRANATE, HOWEVER, HER WEIGHT (15 oz) MAKES HER A PAPAYA. SO BASICALLY OUR DAUGHTER IS A FRUIT SALAD. HER NEW DUE DATE ( IF THE OFFICIALLY CHANGE IT) WILL BE 8/11, WHICH IS MY BIRTHDAY. IF THEY DO A 38wk C-SECTION (THANKS TO MY AGE AND GESTATIONAL DIABETES) SHE WOULD BE BORN @ 7/28 - THIS LITTLE LADY NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY KEEP HER NOT SO LITTLE BUTT RIGHT WHERE SHE IS FOR A WHILE. WE NEED ALL THE TIME WE CAN GET TO GET READY FOR HER.
ANYWAY, THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS HAVE BEEN A LITTLE CRAZY. AS I MENTIONED ABOVE, I HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH GESTATIONAL DIABETES, I FAILED MY 1 HR TEST AND THEN FAILED 2 OF THE 4 READINGS ON THE 3 HR TEST. HOWEVER, BECAUSE I ONLY FAILED 2 AND NOT BY MUCH, RIGHT NOW IT IS ONLY MONITORING MY SUGAR 4 TIMES A DAY AND MAKING SOME SMALL CHANGES TO MY DIET. HOPEFULLY WE CAN KEEP THIS THING IN CHECK. MY BLOOD PRESSURE WAS A LITTLE HIGH AT ONE POINT SO THEY WERE A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT TOO BUT IT SEEMS TO BE FINE NOW SO WE WILL SEE. WE DID HAVE A HELL OF A SCARE FOR ABOUT A WEEK. I WILL NOT GET INTO TOO MANY DETAILS BUT LET US JUST SAY BLADDER INFECTIONS IN PREGNANCY ARE NOT FUN AT ALL. IN AND OUT OF THE HOSPITAL WITH ALL KINDS OF SCARY STUFF HAPPENING. FINALLY BETTER AND THANKFUL THAT IT HAS PASSED.
