Update and good news

So, I realize I haven't updated in a while. Oops lol.

I failed my 1 hour glucose test, and took my 3 hour test on 4-22. I just got my results.. and I passed!! Woot. No gestational diabetes for me!! :) I plan to bake a batch of brownies in celebration tonight.. I mean, what other way to celebrate? hehe. I'm sure the doc is going to ask me to keep an eye on my sugar levels though.

In other news, last Wed (4-21) I hit 27 weeks. So I am now officially in my 3rd trimester!! So exciting! I can't believe it. I will be 28 weeks on this Wed (4-28). So this means I have 12 weeks until my Est. Due Date, and JUST 9 weeks until I am full term. So at any point in time, after 9 weeks Tristan can come. I mean .. really? We are almost there already? It feels so unreal at this point.

We started our Childbirth and Parenting classes last Thursday (4-22) and it was so fun. We have them every Thursday night for 6 weeks. I can't wait for our next class this Thurs!! My next OB appt is on May 12th at 9am, and I will be 30 weeks. I also have my 4D ultrasound on May 7th :D yay!

Well there you have it.. I think that's everything :D Ty for reading!

Double Digits!

Today I am 25 weeks & 6 days pregnant, and it is a momentous occasion. Why you ask? Because now I am in the double digits! There are only 99 days until my due date, and it is so exciting for it to finally be under 100 :). I can't believe that I will meet our son somewhere in the next 3 months or so. It's amazing, exciting, and overwhelming all at once.

I'm a bit nervous though today. My next OB appt is tomorrow (4-14) and I have my glucose tolerance test tomorrow. I'm not excited about that at all!! I'm so afraid that I will find out I have gest. diabetes. Dunno why, just a strange hunch. I am however, very excited that I get to hear baby boy's heartbeat tomorrow.

Just thought I would share :)

24w belly pics. Warning: Bare belly :)

Here are pics I took at 24 weeks. Info is in the pic :). Enjoy























































My belly button is nearly flat :)




24w update, 5 days late

Hey guys. I don't have much to blog about right now really. I hit 24 weeks last Wednesday, so I will be 25 weeks on the 7th. I am happy, because 24 weeks is viability. This means that if something were to happen and Tristan was born now, he would actually have a chance of survival. With extensive medical care, and months in the NICU of course. But it's good to know he would have a fighting chance. However, I had a talk with the lil guy. I told him he isn't allowed to come out until June 30th (37 weeks). He kicked after I said that, so I think we have an understanding ;) lol.

April is a busy month for us :). My mom's b-day was the 2nd, my sister's b-day is the 11th, on the 14th I have my 26 week check up at my OB.. as well as my 1 hour glucose test.. fun, I hit 27 weeks on the 21st and will officially move into my 3rd trimester that day, and our parenting/childbirthing classes start on the 22nd :). I'm so excited! I can't believe how close we are getting. Things just seem to fly by!

Next I'll post a bump pic u/d :)
