Third trimester

This week I moved into my third trimester at 28 weeks! I am so excited for Baby K to almost be here! I feel like I am getting huge, and I weighed in at 150.8 lbs. However, I have weighed both more and less than that since then...but if I am gaining a pound a week the doctor will probably not be happy tomorrow.


Aunt Michelle had her beautiful baby boy this morning. His name is Tristan and he looked handsome, so it makes Nick and I all the more excited to see our little man or lady. I can tell Nick really gets baby fever when he sees other babies.


Baby K moves all the time and I love it. I can feel him twisting and turning and pushing out both ends of my stomach. I never want it to end, even though it feels like a little alien.


I am not very excited for tomorrow because I will have another glucose test and I am afraid I am going to fail. I have been having a lot of blood sugar problems and feeling very sick during the day. My levels will get high and then crash later one. The other day I came home and I felt so ill that I thought I might not be able to drive (I know, not safe) and my blood sugar was 59. I knew I was having problems when I was in NH and I was eating poorly, but I haven't had many problems at home until now. I think I have just been so busy at work that I am forgetting to eat enough.


Of course, I know that watching my diet is best for me and baby, so I have already started doing so.


Nick is coming around to my and Jace's current way of thinking, that we might be having a little girl. However, this could change several times for the whole family before we meet him or her in February. We don't care, as long as it is a healthy baby. We can't believe that next Christmas we will be a family of four! (Wait, or five, six, seven, eight...with all of our furry children. :) )
