Excellence In Christ

• Sep. 9, 2008 - 28 Weeks with 11 to go!

Posted in Pregnancy

I am finally in my third trimester.  I can barely believe that, Lord willing, in a couple months we will be holding our new baby boy!  In fact I ALMOST have a date for my c-section -- probably 24 November.  That shaves off a week, hence only 11 weeks to go!  The dr said the 24th looked like a good date, but she won't put me on the books until my next appt at 32 weeks.

 

Today's OB appointment went well.  Even though I've gained 5.5 lbs since four weeks ago, the Dr. (a different one from last time) didn't say anything.  She did say that I continue to measure two weeks ahead, but doesn't see a cause for concern unless I measure more than 3 weeks too large or I am found to have gestational diabetes.

 

Speaking of gestational diabetes, I took the dreaded glucose test today.  Actually, I've never minded it as long as the glucose drink was cold.  It's always tasted like nearly-flat Pepsi or Sunkist to me.  The dr will call me in the next few days if the results are abnormal.  Otherwise, I won't hear from her until my next regular appt.

 

Baby boy's heartbeat was 148 bpm.  He was kicking a lot and still is a few hours later.  I think he is still experiencing a sugar high from the glucose drink.;-)

 

Thank you all for your continued prayers.   In Christ, Talya

I am trying to convince Sean to take the girls to someone's house for Thanksgiving and bring me back a nice big plate.:-) He says he won't want to leave me and the baby, so I guess that means hotdogs!:-) In Christ, Talya
