hello there

My state of mind is much improved today compared to my last post and even to how I was feeling yesterday. I was supposed to take the 3 hour gestational diabetes test today (I failed the 1 hour test by 1 point!). However, because of the winter weather forcast which included sleet and freezing rain, my doc's office called yesterday to move my appointment to next Tuesday. If I do have it, which is not the end of the world but won't be fun either, then I will likely see a nutritionist who will establish a new diet for me...

Anywho, things are trucking right along with the rest of my pregnancy. I am 26 weeks today and I have been feeling Benjamin move quite alot in the last few days. I think he is getting stronger and starting to get more cramped in there! Jeff has even felt him kick on three different occasions! Its been pretty cool. The only concern right now is that Ben may be a ginormous baby! When we had our 20 wk ultrasound he was measuring almost 2 weeks ahead. So...we have to have another ultrasound on Feb 6 to find out if he is still growing at that rate or if he just hit a growth spurt sooner than the average baby. If he is still as large, my docs may consider adjusting my due date. However, biologically speaking, I don't see how they could move it ahead of April 21, but we'll see!!

I also feel as if I have neglected to post some of Ben ultrasound pics for you all, so here you go!


Ben @ 8 weeks (2D)



Ben @ 8 wks (3/4D)



Ben @ 19wks 6days (3/4D)

I will post again soon! Y'all hang onto your horses until then! :-)
