32 weeks

Every week I get bigger and bigger. It's crazy that you don't notice it until you take a picture.

Cake and Belly

This is the view I see all the time. Alex makes my belly so lopsided. His head is on the left and his butt is on the right and it always pokes out. I took this at 32 weeks, but I'll put up the typical picture on Sunday.



Here's the awesome cake Shannon's mom made. It was sooo good!

Shower #3

The girls at work threw me a shower yesterday! I got more cute outfits, some bath stuff, gift cards and cash. The cake was soooo adorable. I took a picture of it on my phone, I'll have to get that to the computer so you can see it!!

Diapers and Clothes

Aunt Stephanie's Diaper cake has stocked 2 drawers and the diapers are stacked 2 rows high. That should last us a few days.

Here's a really full closet!!

Dr. appointment update

I had a doctor appointment today. He said everything looks great, I have a perfect pregnancy...except I'm heavier than he'd like, but I haven't gained much lately, so I'm fine.

I asked about an ultrasound and they'll do one on the 27th. There's been no mention of delivering early. Hopefully after the ultrasound we'll see if Alex is breech, then we may have a clearer picture of the future.

Today is my 1st shower

I'm so excited! I'll take some pictures...if I remember and post them. I'm sure others will take pics, but I'll get the good stuff like the cake and presents!

Updates

At this stage in my pregnancy, they test for gestational diabetes. They do a 1 hour glucose tolerance test where you drink sugar and they draw your blood. My levels came back high 156, so they called me back for the 3 hr. test. There they drew a vial of blood, then had me drink 100mg of sugar, then every hour after that for 3 hours they draw blood. Today I found out that I passed the test and I don't have gestational diabetes. Yay! But, I am anemic, so I have to take prescription iron pills now until I deliver.

I also asked the doctor about another ultrasound to see if Alex has enough room and fluid in there. He said they'd see about that in another month. Other than that, the doctor said it looks like the pregnancy is going well with the bicornuate uterus.
