28 Weeks....Time to Drink the Juice!


This past Wednesday I hit the 28-week mark! This is flying by! We had the glucose test Thursday morning. Everyone told me how awful the drink would be, but it wasn't too bad. I'm not a big fan of fruit punch flavored items to begin with, but it could have been a lot worse. I was so excited about this appointment because it was to be the BEST ultrasound images of all.....not so much. This kid was all over the place! He just wouldn't be still to have his picture taken, and kept his hands and arms up in front of his face the whole time. The new picture at the top of the blog is about as good as it got. You can make out his left-side profile....you can see his eye and chin and those arms up like he's ready to block a punch. Wonder who he gets his stubborness from.....give you a hint....it starts with a D, and rhymes with pale.
I'm feeling him move a ton now!! It's one of the coolest, weirdest, most surreal feelings. He is super active as soon as I wake up in the morning, and most evenings. I wish Dale could feel it all too. I try to get him to feel when he's moving around alot, but he always seems to stop right when I mention it. My stomach is running out of a room, too. I just can't eat that much at a time anymore, and really haven't had much of an appetite anyway. Going back towards plain foods for sure.
I'm definitely loving my naps again (not that that really ever ended)! I've felt pretty good during the week, and am trying to walk or run most days, but BRING ON those 2- and 3-hour naps on Saturdays and Sundays.
The bedding should arrive any day now, and we will get to work on the nursery!! We got the dresser today. I'm still deciding between a few different shades of blue or green for the walls. Much more to come on that soon.
Just under 12 weeks to go!!!!
