28 weeks: Another milestone!--According to babycenter.com BS weighs about 2 1/4 lbs now and is almost 15 inches long. We continue to pray that baby will be healthy in the months to come!Good News! The appointment went well this morning with the Gestational Diabetes Consultant and Dietician. They said that I'm doing well - and that my fasting blood sugars in the morning look good enough so I don't have to administer insulin. They're concerned I haven't been getting enough calories as I haven't gained any weight in the past few weeks so told me "you NEED to eat your snacks!" They say that my urine test have been a little off because I've cut TOO many carbs out of my diet and need to put some more back in (just spread out throughout the day)
I'm still craving a huge blizzard, fruit loops and endless watermelon but for another three months I guess I'll continue to watch my portions! It's no fun to have 1/4-1/2 cup of ice cream in one sitting--I want 3 cups in one sitting! Instead, this morning after my appointment I treated myself to a McDonalds Bacon, Egg & Cheese McMuffin. Wow--that tasted delicious.
Bill left this morning for Leech Lake doing a cool story and then off to Walker, MN for a Muskie tournament "Muskie Mania" this weekend for fun. I've decided to stay home this weekend and get some good relaxing in (ie: laundry)
