13 More Weeks To Go


Had my 27th week appointment today. Everything seems to be going well. Aidan's heart rate was 150 bpm. I have gained a total of 19 lbs already...seems like a lot more. I had to take the routine test for gestational diabetes at this appointment. It wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting. I won't know the results until later. I go back again for my next check up in four weeks. I am suppose to start doing kick counts every day from now on to make sure he is moving around enough and being active. Another thing to stress me out.
We bought a crib and have it all set up. It came with a changing table. I think it looks really nice...kind of made things seem very real. Still need to get a mattress for it. I also picked up a pack and play (portable crib) at a garage sale. I am not sure how often we will be traveling in the near future but I figured it might be a good idea to have one just in case. Damian's mom has also been doing some bargain hunting is all set up for when we are there to visit.
We are planning on having a big BBQ/Baby shower on August 25th...that's a Saturday. Time to be announced later, probably like 6:30 to 9ish. Hope that we can have a bunch of friends and family come and join us.
