33 Week Doctor Appointment

As you can see...I'm growing, growing, growing. The baby has nowhere to go but up into my lungs and down into my bladder. So there's definitely some discomfort there.

I had an ultrasound on Christmas Eve and the baby measures at 4lbs, 4 oz - exactly right on schedule for where I am in the pregnancy. Everything else is good too, his face looks perfect, as does my uterus etc...

I am borderline gestational diabetic, so I have to manage my diet and stay away from sugar. If you know me, you know that is a MAJOR challenge. I love all things sugar and I would gladly give up all meat, if it meant I could live on ice cream and candy alone. But I'm being a good girl for the baby, so that means lots of protein and veggies.

My weight gain at this point is 20lbs. So I now weigh 140lbs! Yikes...never thought I'd see the day, but it's here.

Please pray for energy and sleep for me. I still need to work through January!
