All's Well in Babyland



Just a quick update on my appointment with Dr. Norwood this morning. I had to do the glucose test to see if I have gestational diabetes. The drink was not as bad as I expected it to be! Just like a flat, super-sugary orange soda or that children's cough syrup, Triaminic. They drew blood and I'll know in a week or so what my results are. Dr. Norwood said my weight is really good and used the line again about how I should give nutrition classes to his other patients. Kind of made me realize he probably tells that to a lot of people. Oh well, still sweet!

It took him forever to find the baby's heartbeat this time, but I wasn't nervous because little man has been kicking me all day! He finally found a different Doppler machine in case his other one was broken. Turns out Baby G was hanging out ABOVE my belly button, which is why the heartbeat was hard to find. SO WEIRD! I really don't even know how that's possible right now, but okay. Strong, steady heartbeat = music to my ears.
