Week 24 of Pregnancy
So, I had my glucose screening test today, it really was not that bad! The drink tasted like flat orange soda with too much sugar. The only bad thing was it gave me bad acid reflux. After that I had my doctors appointment, and it went well. He said the baby's heart beat sounds good and everything, so that made me happy. I have now gained about 10 pounds from where I was pre-pregnancy (I lost about 5 pounds at the beginning of pregnancy, so if you include that, I have gained about 15 pounds). About two hours after I had my glucose test, I got so tired, I think it was because I was on a sugar high from the drink, and then my body crashed once it wore off. Anyways, everything is very good this week. I have been sleeping better, which is a huge perk! My belly has gotten super round, and it just keeps getting bigger. Still no stretch marks, but I do have a faint Linea Nigra, and the top of my belly button pokes out a little now. I have been craving iced coffee, which I have had a few of. My doctor said it is okay for me to have a cup of coffee or a glass of soda each day, but just not too much. My next doc. appointment is in 4 weeks (October 17th) and then after that one I start going every two weeks. I have 3 more weeks until I am in my third trimester, which I am super happy about! Each week is just another week closer to meeting my baby boy! I am glad to hear everyone is doing pretty well this week. I will keep y'all updated as things happen, talk to you soon!
