I've been struggling with a cold over the last week. Luckily, blogging is something that can be done from bed! Having a cold is just the start of how moms-to-be are forced to "suck it up" for their baby. What I mean by that is, there really isn't much that my doctor recommends to moms when they're ill other than lots of rest.
Last night, Shane and I were listening to the heartbeat with the handheld BebeSounds monitor and Addie kept kicking right where we were listening. We watched the device on my belly move up and down as she kicked, it was really neat.
Next week is my 6 month Checkup. This will be the appointment that they test me for gestational diabetes. They'll have me drink an orange syrup-like drink about an hour before the appointment and I can't eat after midnight the night before.....mmmmm. I'm not sure if the doctor is going to do another sonogram or not, since he wasn't able to get a good glimpse of Addie's face last time. If Doc decides to though, I'll post the picture on here then.
Here's my newest baby bump picture, although, now it's more of a MOUND than a bump. I've been told that usually around now, women start noticing the first signs of stretch marks. While I haven't seen any yet, I'm sure they'll show up soon enough :...(
