Feeling Good

Well, it has been a while since i've updated (as usual) but here we go. I had my next doctor appointment today and can I just say no matter how hard I tried, I was so anxious about it. I had my glucose tolerance test last week... the results of which I was to find out today. I also "gained too much weight" last time, so I was very anxious about my weigh-in (I felt like I was on biggest loser or something). But, after much un-needed worrying, I found out that all my glucose screening came back fine, and I gained no weight from my last appointment. WOHOO!!! Now... the next thing to look forward to was where the baby was measuring. At my 25 week appointment, she was measuring around 27 weeks. This week marked my 29th week, and she is measuring in at a whopping 32 weeks instead. So... a february due date is looking less and less likely. I'm thinking we'll be adding another January baby to the family. We shall see...

It's crazy to think that I'm only 11 weeks away now (or maybe less). At my next doctor appointment, they should decide wither or not they are going to do an ultrasound to gain some more accurate measurements and see if she really is measuring big. I can definitely tell she has grown... I feel her move all the time. And I mean all the time... morning, afternoon, and night. Sometimes in the morning, Nathan will have his hand on my stomach, and he just lays in bed and laughs. It's been so fun... although as she starts to pack more of a punch/kick, i'm sure it wont be as fun when those punches and kicks are directed toward my ribs.

I have been so blessed to have such an "easy" pregnancy. I've been able to stay very mobile (even though the mobility is starting to become more uncomfortable), and I've managed to avoid most sickness all together. I did come down with a cold a few weeks ago, and when I was feeling so miserable, I realized how much I had taken for granted the ease of this pregnancy so far. I am so thankful to have continued to work (as its been available) and teach piano lessons. The Lord has definitely gone far beyond blessing me during this time. I'd even say its been fun. SHHHHH Don't tell anyone that :)

More updates to come as we get closer. And as I close, I will just say that since I gained no weight at this appointment... bring on Thanksgiving.
