24 weeks

Here is a picture of me at 24 weeks pregnant! That was almost a week ago...but I wanted to wait until my Doctor's appointment to post so I could give an update. We had an appointment yesterday and everything is looking great. Baby has been moving a lot the last two days. Like almost all day! I never get tired of feeling the baby move though, so it works out:) We have our next appointment in 3 weeks and I will have the glucose test to see if I have gestational diabetes. And I'm happy to report that this time I don't have to drink the sugar drink that makes you want to puke! Instead I get to eat certain foods an hour before the appointment. That works out much better for me.

You can all pray that I don't pass out when they take my blood. Did I share that I almost passed out when they took my blood the first time??? Oh yeah, I did. It was embarrassing. I just slumped back in the chair and the lady asked if I was OK...she must have seen how pale and sweaty I was. But I got a cookie out of the deal! So that's a major win. This time it's just a finger prick. Don't judge me. I admit that I'm a major wuss when it comes to needles!

Yep - I like donuts too

Well little missy, I had the same experience with my blood work for the 9 week appointment as well. He pulled out that little stick that they break open and make you smell if you do pass out. I would've preferred a cookie!

You look great and very happy. Seems as though Marbear is already in the sharing mode. What, is she handing you a juice box for baby #2?
