28 Weeks and Counting.....

I have my 28 week dr's appt today. I get to drink this lovely orange drink that tests for gestational diabetes and other things. I can't drink fruit juice or eat sweets for 3 hours prior to my appointment, ugh! I can do without the fruit juices, but I love sweets!!! I love them more when I am pregnant. I am going to ask my doctor what else I can do about my syotic nerve problem I have had since month 2 of this pregnancy. My baby boy lies on my pelvic region and puts pressure on this nerve. It is getting harder to sleep at night or he wakes me up at 2:30am until 4:00am with kicking me and this nerve thing continuing to hurt. I love feeling him move though, it is the best feeling ever. Having a little one inside of you moving around is awkward, but wonderful! Bailey loves going to the dr's with Jon and I because she gets to see the fish tank in the lobby and gets stickers from the nurse. She does get excited when she hears her brothers heartbeat, but is more occupied with the fish and the stickers.

My dr's appt went well. Heartbeat great, on schedule with everything, return in 4 weeks and then every two weeks and then every week. This pregnancy is flying by. I have had the worst heartburn but that is expected. It does not matter what I eat. I hope to get massages to help with my syotic nerve pain soon. Dr wrote a note so I just need it covered through my husbands flex plan. I love massage, it is the best thing ever especially when you are pregnant.
