so I went to the dr today and my GD test came back normal YEAH I gained 5lbs since my last appt. OMG I was a little freaked since I only had gained 2.5 lbs the entire time up until now. The dr said that it is good though, but then she did my fundal height and she said that while my stomach is small for 29weeks my uterus is measuring big. So when I go back in 2 weeks they will re measure and see where I am at. If I am still large they will do and US to see if I am farther along then what they thought or if the baby is just bigger then normal. I don't like the thought of either. It was the Dr that I don't see often and all of my measurements up until now were normal so hopefully she just messed up. ↓

So you might have her a little early...yay!! I'm glad everything turned out well w/ the GD test...I only had to wait 15 min. for my results but I remember that I was scared to death of having GD since diabetes type I runs in my family. How are you feeling? I'm typing one handed right now and holding Harper...she's sick:( ↑

Jill- I am so glad things went well with you GD test! That is weird about you measuring different compared to the other doctor you see! Let us know when you find out! Maybe like you said that doctor just measured wrong! P.S. You are so loved! I know for me I am just a complete nervous breakdown waiting to happen. I think I am neglecting everyone because I can not think straight! ↑

LOL thanks girls. I am a little worried about being farther along then what was predected, because I have nothing ready. I guess it is time to start shopping. The good think is that I ran into my cousin at the dr office (we all used the same OBGYN) and she was telling me that she has a ton of girl clothes left over from her daughter. I was like OMG why didn't I think of that. so she is going to give me all of her stuff. So I guess if worse comes to worse she will have some clothes to wear :) It is jsut odd to think that I could have her in as little as 5 weeks. when I was thinking that the earilest would be 7weeks (if she came at 36 weeks instead of 40) ↑

kirsty-what is wrong with harper. It sounds odd to talk about her when before we were just talking about her being inside of you :) ↑

:) I know it's still surreal to think that I'm a mother...it hasn't really sunk in yet; I'm just on survival mode..I can't wait until she gets older and I can interact w/ her more. She is congested w/ a stuffy nose and chest..I got sick from the hospital and was ill for about 10 days...I got everyone else sick and Harper's the last to get it...she doesn't have a fever and is eating well, so we just have to wait it out...thanks for asking:) ↑
