Updates and Belly Pic

Here I am at 27 weeks and 4 days!!


Today was an eventful day for Owen and me.  Yesterday, I completely slept through/forgot about our doctor appointment so it was rescheduled for today.  Today's appointment was the gestational diabetes test and an OB checkup.  I selected the orange drink and it wasn't bad.  They gave me a timer and put me in a room to wait for my doctor.  About 30 minutes later I began to feel really sickly.  I started feeling hot and began to pull my hair off my neck and fan myself.  Then I felt like I might puke so I yanked off my nice shirt and in the process felt like I was going to pass out.  I was scared to stand up to try and find someone, so I just laid back and then the hot sweats broke out.  Finally, I was able to cool down and feel more normal.  I think I should have had Chris with me and he WILL be next time!  I can't handle that again alone!  The good news is that we PASSED, no 3 hour glucose test for me!  Whew!

After leaving the dr's office I wasn't feeling 100% so I grabbed some lunch and did a little Christmas shopping before heading back home.  I thought I might fall asleep driving, but I made it home and I am looking forward to bedtime in an hour!!
