I'm 29 weeks today. :) That means that in 2 months I'll be considered full term. She could come anytime after that and no worries. I'm a little nervous, considering I keep looking up the info about diabetics having babies. If she's way big, macrosomatic, I may have to induce or have a c-section. I'm trying to avoid the c-section if I can. Best thing is for me to keep my sugars down (not a problem yet!) and keep active. Walking time! I'm starting to get tired of my job, of course, and anxious to finish things around the house.
We have another ultrasound in a week, so I'll get to see if she's getting huge or not. Matthew will be there. I'm certain he'll be thrilled to see her moving around in there. ;)
Overall, nothing too exciting. Slight swelling of my ankles when I've been sitting all day, gotta pee a lot, she kicks like crazy. All the normal stuff. Blood pressure is doing good and it seems like we're doing well.
Other than baby news, not much else going on. We're kinda kicking back, enjoying the relaxation of the beginning of summer. I'm gonna push Matthew into setting up the pool soon so when it starts warming up again I can swim. I love the feeling of water on my belly. Makes me relaxed. Alright, gotta get back to the grind. When things get exciting, I'll let peeps know!
