30 Weeks

10 weeks left til the due date!!! And in 7 weeks I'll be full term... it's coming quickly! Right now, babies average 15.7 inches and almost 3 lbs. Our baby estimated at 3 lbs 6oz last week, so she's a tad above the average. Our doc said everything was right on track :)

Sleeping has become an increasing challenge. It is pretty hard for me to get comfortable. It helps a bit when I use a pillow to support my back, but I still wake up several times in the night needing to re-adjust. I guess it's just something I'm going to have to deal with until she comes!

My glucose screen came back a bit high, so I had to go back in for a 3 hour gestational diabetes test... UGH. I had to eat extra sugar/carbs for 3 days and then fast for 8 hours before the test. I went in for that this morning. They drew my blood right when I got there, then I had to drink the gross orange glucose drink (double the concentration than the last one) and wait an hour, draw, wait an hour, draw, wait an hour, draw... So 4 blood draws in 3 hours. Not a fan of getting my  blood drawn at all, but the lady at the lab in Kingsley was super nice and it wasn't TOO bad... I started feeling pretty sick a bout a half hour after I drank the bottle of orange sugar syrup and almost wanted to puke. Thankfully that feeling went away after about another half hour. If I would have puked, I would have had to go home and start over again... so thankfully I didn't. My arm is pretty sore right now, but I survived. My wonderful husband brought me a warm sandwich and some snacks when he came to pick me up :)

Back to work tomorrow... It has been so great having almost 2 weeks off for Christmas Break. I was able to get a lot done around the house and I feel that everything is set up well for the baby's arrival! The room is pretty much set up with the crib, dresser, and glider chair/ottoman. I just need to put up the decorations when the nursery set comes and possibly the changing table... other than that, the room is good to go!

Quite disappointed in this "blizzard" we were supposed to get. So far, we have about 4 inches, and they were calling for 10-20". I guess we could still see some tonight, but I'm not counting on it...

1/3 Update: So, it snowed a lot last night and we got a snow day :) I still went into work after I slept in for a couple hours though... AND, my glucose test came back and I do NOT have gestational diabetes! :)
