28 and counting!

Wow, where is the time going?!  I can't believe (and I know I have said this in other posts) that we are getting so close.  We had an appointment yesterday (28 weeks 6 days) and everything went great.  I did the glucose test, that stuff is not so yummy, but all is well because the clinic called me today to say that my blood sugar looked good, what a blessing.  She did say that my hemoglobin is a bit low, so I am starting on an iron supplement which she said would take care of the problem and all would be fine!  We got to hear her heartbeat which was at 152 b/m.  I think no matter how many times we get to listen to it, it will bring a smile to our faces and a tear to my eye.  My blood pressure and weight gain are still right on track, so only a few more weeks to go!!  We will now start having Dr appointments every 2 weeks, then in the last month we will go every week.  At our next appointment we will get to have a sonogram and see our little one, CAN'T WAIT!! 

The nursery is still coming along great!  I am loving it, and just can't wait for all the final touches and of course her!!  We got some shelving hung up and the mirror is in, we just have to hang it this weekend. The curtains are complete as well and hung up!  We are having her bedding made, and it has been delayed about a week....so now we won't see it until probably the 1st week in August.  Not that I "need" it yet, I just feel like the room will be so much more complete when I am not looking at a bare mattress.  Guess my lesson on patience is jut beginning.  My baby bag also came in last week, it was a bit of a splurge, but I am so excited for it, and after we are beyond the diaper bag stage it will be a great carry-on/laptop/"extra stuff" bag!!

I have been in Topeka working a lot this week, so am very ready for the weekend.  We are starting it off tomorrow by going to KC to a Royals game with some friends, it should be a great time. I will post picts of that this weekend!  Hope you all have a great Friday, and an even better weekend!!



28 weeks!!

  1. What kind of diaper bag did you get? I went diaper bag crazy and have them in all shapes and sizes. We still use one occassionaly for toting toys to church or very long car rides, so you get your money out of them.

  2. I sure hope so.......Monicas Coach bag addiction is probably getting passed down to our daughter! She talked me into a Coach baby bag, I won't carry it I bought my own man purse to use as a baby bag!!

  3. Ha, Ha - Jim had a camoflauge diaper bag that he carried but it was probably the one we used most often because I was too lazy to switch out the baby gear.
