Yippee!!! According to my dr I have 12 more weeks to go.

At least not for another 4 weeks! Talk about feeling relieved! My dr. also said that I was only 3 pts(?) away from being in the normal range for my glucose tolerance test which is very different from what the nurse said to me when she called. She indicated that my glucose levels were "very high" and they weren't that bad. My dr. did say that ( Read more... )

I failed my glucose tolerance test...I have to go in next week for the 3 hr test. I thought the fasting all night would do the trick but I guess not. At least I'll have 3 hrs to work on my crosstitch.

My glucose tolerance test was this morning and I have to say compared to the last time I had to take it...it is much better than it was then. Still not the most pleasant of experiences but they have improved the process. When I was pregnant with Tessa you had to drink a thick syrupy concoction which kind of tasted like thick, flat Coke. It was ( Read more... )

This is something that I am not terribly looking forward to but am very happy to know that by tomorrow afternoon I will be done with it. I have a slight suspicion that I will not pass the test but I am keeping my fingers crossed. Since nothing else about this pregnancy has been easy I am just assuming that I will probably be adding gestational ( Read more... )

We're back from Oregon and it was beautiful and alot of fun! Unfortunately, we weren't able to stay the whole week as we had planned thanks to the rain. We had to come home on Thursday instead of Sunday. The thunderstorm we had was fabulous until it was raining harder in my tent than it was outside of the tent. Tessa's tent started to leak too ( Read more... )

so, I have a new outlook on all of this down time that has been forced on me. I've been feeling so frustated with not being able to do anything and consumed with guilt for doing almost nothing that I almost missed a great opportunity. I ran into a friend of mine at a friend's birthday party last weekend and when I told her about my inactivity she ( Read more... )

Well, not until Friday but I am excited about it now. Tessa and I are going to be joining Casey's parents in Oregon for a week. Sadly, Casey has to stay home. He is crazy busy at work and he's trying to wrack up the hours for vacation time so he can be home after Piper's born. I will miss him alot but it's kind of nice for Tessa and I to have ( Read more... )

I think my due date is wrong! I received a bill yesterday from Cedars for my CVS. I guess this one was a billing for the lab work. On it,it said a CVS for a 14 week old fetus. I looked at it hoping the bill wasn't mine because clearly the information was incorrect. I was just starting my 11th week when the CVS was done. So, I called them up ( Read more... )

Does anyone know anyone who is trying to conceive? I have about 4 books on that subject that I'd love to pass along to a friend or a friend of a friend of a friend.... I am doing some organizing and am getting rid of all kinds of things that we don't need anymore. Please let me know.
