Ticker

I updated the ticker at the top of my page.  I had it set with Shamrocks for our "March" baby.  But... yesterday, the OB said that because I am diabetic they will have to induce at 39 weeks.  I posted to facebook that she moved my due date up a week.  I guess technically that's not true.  She isn't moving my actual due date she just said she won't let me go past 39 weeks.  So, I just changed the ticker to show that she will definitely be here by then. :)

Baby is measuring 30 weeks.  I'm very strict and good on my diet.  I had to take my glucose chart yesterday and she was very pleased with my numbers.  She told me that she expects me to eat cake on my 30th birthday in February, haha.  My last 2 appointments were in the morning so I didn't eat before I went.  Originally, between months 2-4 I gained 5 pounds.  But, every appointment after that I had lost weight.  So, until yesterday, I was down to my pre-pregnancy weight.  Yesterday, my appointment was at 4.  Obviously I couldn't go all day without eating!  I am now up 2 pounds since I got pregnant but my next appointment is in the morning so I imagine those will vanish :)  She said baby and water weighs at least 5 pounds by now so in reality, I have lost a few pounds.  All in all, things are good!  I feel a lot of pressure which she said is normal for a 2nd pregnancy.  It's getting closer and I cannot wait to meet this little girl!

I'll be having the March baby:-)
I feel alot of pressure too..it is uncomfortable! You're doing great on your eating! Shoot, you may not even want cake by the time she is here LOL.
If my previa doesn't move, I'll have to have a csection at 36 weeks. Thought of that scares me!
Can't wait to see your sweet baby girl!:-)
