Another Sonogram!

Because I was measuring 2 weeks ahead, we got to have another ultrasound to check on the weight of our lil pierogie. I was 30 weeks and 5 days when I had it, and he was measuring exactly 30 weeks and 5 days! He was at the 50th percentile, and he was weighing 3 lbs 11 oz. I asked Dr. Esposito if he could swing by and make sure he was still a boy, which he did, and he is! Whew!

I didn't pass my first glucose test, so I had to go and take the 3 hour test, which was horrible! I had to follow a diet for 3 days, and then fast the night before the test. I couldn't have anything until the test was over (around 1pm). I had to have my blood drawn as soon as I went in, and then I had to drink the glucose syrup and have it drawn again every hour for 3 hours. Those results came back that I had one high number. If you have 2 high numbers, you have gestational diabetes, so technically, I don't have it, but since I had the one high one, they want to make sure, so I have to take the 3 hour test again! I am NOT looking forward to that, but I know it's just to make sure the baby is ok, so it's a small thing for me to go through to make sure we're having a healthy pierogie. I have an appointment on October 29, so I will have my next 3 hour test the following week.

I also had my first baby shower on October 17 up in PA. It was wonderful. Details and pictures to follow!
