That's Interesting…

Wow. Time has flown by!!!!
The Blueberry is 28 weeks today which means we are starting the 3rd trimester.

On Friday we had our monthly doc appointment. The Blueberry is doing great. Her heartbeat is at 150 and she is two moves away from a black belt. I was tested for gestational diabetes which meant I had to drink a diabetes-coma-inducing glucose potion. This concoction is about 2 pounds of sugar dissolved in a tablespoon of water. I have never tasted anything that sweet and the fruit punch flavor made me want to lick salt for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the rest of my life. Ugh.
I have gained 18 pounds which apparently is good (according to the doctor) but cumbersome (according to me).

All the pregnancy books stress how important it is for the husband to compliment the woman on her changing body. Well, David has been absolutely amazing. He tells me I look sexy every day. He loves to hold my tummy. And then on Sunday he woke up earlier than me and just watched me sleep while bonding with the kicking Blueberry. Isn’t he just wonderful?
I have had a hard time embracing the “sexy” side of pregnancy but I think I am getting there…unless I am picking something off the ground, running, or getting off a couch.

Love,

Sandy
