28 Week Update

I got up bright and early yesterday for my doctor's appointment since I had to stay for at least an hour for the sugar test to make sure I did not have gestational diabetes. This is a routine procedure, and probably the worst one ever! No food beforehand (which is not fun especially when morning sickness has returned), the worst, sweetest drink you have ever tasted, and waiting for an hour...if you don't pass its 4 HOURS! I passed thankfully and got out in an hour and J took Jack to school for me. He did so good, and even walked J into school, only a little whining when the teacher shut the dutch door behind J. I think he is starting to think I am much more boring than school!!


Now for the stats

At 28 weeks.....

• Heartbeat was 152, and I had to find you for the nurse
• You are the size of a cabbage
  
• We only have 12 weeks at the most before you are here. I really want to keep you in there a little longer than that!
  
• I had the big weight gain that the doc said would happen...6lbs! YIKES! For a total of 10lbs gained
• Still throwing up in the mornings
• The heartburn is still making daily appearances
  
• We are definitely going to call you Henry, as of today! HA! I still like John Henry, but I do not want your name to be shortened to John because I don't think any little boy should have to compete with his daddy having the same name. J likes Henry better...so we will see!
