32/33 week doc appt

Saw the ob today.  The first thing that was found out was that I had a 6 lb weight gain in 2 weeks!  I was floored!  I haven't been eating much (don't have the room or the appetite) and I've been forcing myself to stay active, even when I'm exhausted (all the time...lol).  That brings my total gain to 20 lbs, which isn't bad...but that I gained 6 in 2 weeks, and back a few months I gained 9 in 4 weeks...I pretty much saw the writing on the wall back then (I read too much).  Anywho, to stay on track with how it went, ob's aide came in and checked the heartrate (a strong 138 :), then the ob came in.  First thing he said was 'you failed your glucose test (again)'.  He said he figures I've been a gestation diabetic the entire pregnancy (I failed two takings of the one hour test).  He's sending me for the 3 hour test as a formality (he called it), but is treating me as a GD patient from now on.  He ordered another NST, and also a ultrasound to estimate baby's weight to this point (he palpatated again and said there's nothing but one big baby in there).  We're going to go and do this all tomorrow morning, since he's now seeing me weekly (need the results back quick).  I was a bit surprised by the GD results, but almost *relieved* as to the explanation for the spurts of weight-gain and the crappy way I've been feeling, too.  So, I'll keep all updated on how that goes...maybe get to peek at the gender and get a definate answer for all of you that keep asking me...LOL!  Poor Alex doesn't know when to definately ask for a vacation, since this could possibly change the csection date.  I told him to wait until the next appt on Monday and see what the ob says about it...I'm sure he can tell us if he thinks we'll be going sooner or not.

I guess that's about it...came home today, played on the comp for a bit, then played outside with Kaitlynne and the critters while dinner was cooking, then ate on the porch (nice breeze today).  Tomorrow will be appts, Thursday will be an appt and then meeting up with Kim to get all the Easter preperations together (and we're dying eggs with the kids), Saturday Alex and I are going to attempt a date-night at the movies, then Sunday is Easter with my mom and Kim's whole gang at her house.  Back to appts on Monday...lol.  Busy busy...whichis good, of course.

Since I know Alex likes to read these since it's how he figures out what's going on half the time (since it changes daily), just wanted to say I love you, honey...*kisses*
