A Growing Peanut

This week marks the second to last week in my second trimester. Our peanut will be here before we know it.

I had a doctor's appointment on Monday and have to have a glucose test done before my next appointment. I have had a ton of Easter candy so I'm going to wait until next week so I can cut down on my sugar intake. Fingers crossed I pass because if I fail I have to take a three hour glucose test. The rest of my appointment went well. I put on 6 lbs last week. I was SHOCKED but the doctor didn't seem concerned. I can tell you I will be cutting out the chocolate donuts I've been feasting on for the past two months or so.

The peanut has been super active today. I laid down for a bit after work for a while and my belly danced around. I enjoyed seeing her move and bounce around.

Easter at our house was great but exhausting. We're very lucky to have family that didn't mind traveling to spend the holiday with us but I'm still catching up on sleep after last weekend. We now have all of her furniture in her room, a little decorating to do and it will be all set for her arrival. We're getting excited and nervous.

I cannot wait to see what she looks like and I especially can't wait to hold her for the first time. Come on July!
