28 weeks prenatal visit

Well, I had my 28 weeks prenatal visit yesterday and had to do a glucose test. All the measurements are good. Baby heartbeat, belly size, and blood pressure are all good. My belly isn’t big at all, but I weight a ton! I have already gained 25 pounds…………..

After waiting for an hour, they drew my blood. It was painful. I just think that the medical assistant did not know how to do it because every time they do it, it hurts. When I went to the lab to get my blood drawn at the hospital, I didn’t feel a thing and it was done.

Anyway, the clinic called me today and told me that my number was high for the glucose test so I have to go do a three hour one tomorrow. I am not looking forward to it because I can’t eat or drink anything in an hour till the test is done tomorrow. I am going to be so so so hungry!

Baby is moving like crazy. She likes to kick, swim, and dance while I am trying to sleep. Sometime, it feels like she is jumping on a trampoline. I love all the movements she makes even though they contribute to my sleeping problem.

Twelve more weeks, still, 12 more weeks, we can’t wait to meet her and hold her. A lot of women say pregnancy is hard because they get sick and discomfort all the time. However, for me, the hardest part is that I have to wait nine months to see my baby! Why can’t it just be three months like tigers???

A little accident

I felt on my face last night while I was trying to go into the bathroom. It was so dark and I couldn't see. I tripped over a box on the floor. Jason was so scared and flew over and picked me up from the floor.

We were both really scared. Jason instantly asked me if the baby and I are ok. I told him I was ok and the baby was ok because I didn't fall on my belly. My arms and shoulders hurt so back right after I fell because I tried to support my whole body weight (and the baby) on my arms so that I wouldn't fall on my belly.

I went to the bathroom and continued on watching the move. Then, reality sunk in. I started to panic because the baby didn't move at all. She was moving like crazy right before I fell. I couldn't concentrate on the movie because I was paying attention to my belly, but she didn't really move.

When we went to bed, I said a prayer and asked Heavenly Father to bless the baby and keep her safe. She started to move while I was saying the prayer!

Well, then she was super hyper All Night Long!

Strong kicks

Baby, you must know that it's Thanksgiving today because you have been kicking hard non-stop since 7 this morning. How come you have so much energy today? is it because you knew Mommy would eat a lot?

This morning, Daddy put his hand on Mommy's tummy and fell asleep and your strong kicks woke Daddy up. That's how strong you were!

Mommy didn't feel good just now after TWO big Thanksgiving dinners. Daddy was really worried abour Mommy ,and Mommy was so scared that you weren't ok in there. Then you started kicking again, even though they weren't very strong but you did such a good jpb to let Mama know that you are ok. You are such a good girl! Everytime, when Mommy is worried, you always perform a few kicks to ease my mind.

Daddy and Mommy love you so very much!

My little sweetheart

My little sweetheart, you have been good to mommy. You didn't make Mama sick at all. Sometime, Mama is a little too tired to concentrate on her schooling but she is able to keep up so far. I know mommy needs to relax and not stress too much about the grades.

Mommy get stress a little too easy now that she knows there is a life growing inside her. She worries about your health and well being all the time. Daddy and Mommy are trying their best to give you what you need and raise you to be a good person.

We hope that you will be a strong baby that gives us joy and comfort while Daddy and Mommy try to finish our schooling. Please do not get sick too often once you are here as Mama does not think that she can handle seeing you in pain.

Daddy and Mommy love you very much and we can't wait to see you in less than four months. In the mean time, please keeps kicking!
