30 Weeks

Today the boys got to join me for my 30 week appointment. Troy was in meetings all morning and I didn't want to stress about finding a sitter and I didn't dare get there late after what happened last time. The boys were great to cooperate and we had no problems getting there on time. Woo hoo!!

The only thing I was worried about was Sebastien having an "accident". We are doing great with potty training this week and I think we are just about to get rid of the diapers...I am keeping my fingers crossed.

As soon as we got checked in, I of course, had to go to the bathroom. I made both boys face the opposite wall...they didn't need to see me leaving my "sample". I would hate to come home and later find them peeing in a cup. :) The results for today's appointment:

*I PASSED the glucose test! (I was really nervous about that one.)
*Blood pressure is good (I am assuming this because they never told me what it was and didn't mention it later in the appointment.)
*I didn't gain any weight.
*My uterus is measuring at 31cm. (Right along with my original due date!)
*The baby's head is down, causing A LOT of pressure.
*I have to start monitoring my contractions better since I am getting closer to the end.
*Be back in the office in 2 weeks!

In this post, I also wanted to list some of the things that have happened this time around. There may be some repeats but I just want to make sure I get it noted.

*First, cravings! I have gone from throwing up everything to wanting caffeine, to only wanting fruits and veggies, then salads and from there, anything with sugar. I am currently back to the point where nothing really sounds good and I can only eat a little at a time.

*This little girl already loves her brothers. As soon as they start making noises in the morning, she starts doing flips and moving around like crazy. I definitely do NOT need an alarm clock.

*She is really preparing me for the 2-3 hours feedings in the middle of the night. She is either moving around so much it wakes me up or I have to go to the bathroom. Last night I was up from 3:00-4:00 because she was laying in a funny position and making my back ache.

*Manti gets a little confused as to where "baby sister" is at. He will sometimes come over and rub my chest saying, "hi, baby sister". I try to be quick to point out that his baby sister is not "there" but in my tummy. It is still so cute though.

* I am now to the point where SNEEZING is NOT a good thing to do when I cannot stop to cross my legs. (If you other mothers out there know what I mean. ;) )

I am sure there are more things I wanted to list but cannot think of anymore right now. All I know is, I still have so much I want to get done around the house before she makes her grand entrance and time is quickly passing.
