Did Glucose test today

Not bad at all. I had the fruit punch tasting drink thing and then had my regular 4 week appointment, and then they drew blood. Get results on Monday. Boy I hope I pass....

What did freak me out at my regular appointment (I am 28 weeks) was the fact that I gained 10 POUNDS this month!!! I almost fell off the scale. I have had NO appetite all month, and force myself to eat 3 small meals a day. So I thought maybe 5 pounds MAX. But then again the belly and baby TOTALLY popped out last week and I now "look" pregnant. The doctor said the baby has had its growth spurt. I wish they would of prepared me for growth spurt thing LAST month so I would be ready for the news!!!!! So at 28 weeks I am up 34 lbs Chat Icon


Heartbeat 130, and oh yeah, the baby is breach right now - nothing to worry about (yet). Fun times!!!! Chat Icon

I just did my glucose test on Wednesday. Fingers crossed for both of us! I wouldn't worry about the weight. Between 6-7 months seems to be a huge growth spurt. With my DS I gained 10 lbs in that month too!

Congrats!!! The drink wasn't bad at all, but she just took it out of the cabinet so it was warm and stuff. I would have prefered it chilled over some ice cubes! Chat Icon

FINGERES CROSSED FOR US BOTH!!! I guess it wouldnt of come as such a surprise to me (the freaking 10 pound weight gain in 4 weeks) if I knew about this growth spurt coming on. Well baby has had its fun - it needs to settle in now Chat Icon

She just felt around with her hands on my belly and felt the head up around my belly button and then traced down the outline of his or her little body. She said 28 weeks is still early but they will keep checking when I go back every 2 weeks. If baby doesn't start shifting, she said there are exercises that she will have me to do baby can shift.

I gained 9 pounds between 20 and 24 weeks and actually lost 1 from 24-28. You'll probably slow down this month too.

I'm in the same boat. I gained 28 so far with 12 weeks to go. I blame it on the baby...I swear he's going to be 17 pounds!!!!
