Or you'll open your eyes and Baby Girl will be here! This past Friday I had my 34 week check up with Dr. Conner and everything is still looking good. Still measuring a little small (hey I am NOT complaining!) and only about 1.5lb gained since my last visit (again no complaints here!) and heart rate in the 130's this time (some one was taking her post-breakfast nap - lol) At my previous visit she had mentioned that with GD patients they like to induce at 39 weeks and it didn't even hit me she said that until I got home. So I decided to ask her about it at this visit, and sure enough I was told to go ahead an plan on it! Eek! No more moving at a glacier pace in this house, now she is coming a week early if not sooner. I am still checking my sugars daily then faxing in my numbers to the specialist weekly and even though I have had a few indulgences, they are pleased with my numbers and am told to just continue with my diet :) I go back to Dr. Conner in a couple weeks for a check up and also back to Dr. Zuidema's (the specialist)the same day for another ultrasound to check baby's size.
Tyler continues to be excited and he is SUCH a big helper around the house and for me in general. I am BEYOND thankful for the age gap, as I don't know what I would do without him! He will bring the laundry upstairs for me (he'd prolly change it around for me too if he could reach - hehe) he gets my sock, shoes and slippers for me and will even help take them on and off. Since he has been such a big helper and he's saving for a REAL car ya know, I have been giving him $1 here and there for helping (especially when it's without asking) He just thinks that is the coolest thing and could even tell you what the total is he has saved up. He as grown up way too fast and is truly about to NOT be my baby anymore :( He has been so amazing understanding as best he can both about Allen working on the race car and me not able to do as much he will be getting a very special gift when he comes to the hospital to meet his new sister (shhhhhh - don't tell! It's a SURPRISE)
Allen is ALMOST don't with the race car (thank goodness last week got cancelled) and it really couldn't be better timing. Hoping with in a couple of weekends he can at the very least get the bedroom/living area done - here's hoping we will have lots of family and friends jumping in to help! Meanwhile, I have been busy doing my nesting thang - got all nursery furniture painted (all by myself thank you very much) minus the crib and have been cleaning and organizing my rear off! Beware kitchen and bathroom - you are next! Bahahahahaha!
