We went back to the doctor today for the 28 week check up and the dreaded glucose screening. The doctor said everything looks great; Baby T is measuring on schedule now and his heart rate is perfect. The glucose test was not pleasant at all, but I've had more than my share of those and knew what to expect. I am a little nervous that my history with those and blood sugar levels in general will result in needing a second round of tests, but we've got our fingers crossed that it's not necessary. I should find out in a few days if I have to go back in. Now that we are in the third trimester, we have to go back to the doctor every two weeks. Knowing that just makes everything so much more real and immediate to me. Wow, anytime you have to see a doctor that often, its definitely serious business!
A and I have quite a busy schedule over the next month or so. We are going this weekend to the last golf tournament of the summer in Starkville. We are both really looking forward to seeing friends and relaxing for a few days. After that, we have a few baby showers over the following weekends and then our childbirth classes start in mid-September. (After reading about Emily's experience, I am kinda nervous, but maybe we will at least learn something!) I have a feeling the next few weeks will be a little exhausting, but also a lot of fun. I'll try to post pictures as we go. Speaking of pictures, here's an updated picture of me and Baby T. He's definitely growing!
