I had my 30 week appointment yesterday. We didn't do an ultrasound this visit but Watson's heartbeat is "perfect" and I am measuring at 31 weeks. The doctor said there is a 3 cm margin of error, so I am right on target (31 cm belly = 31 weeks). I did the 3 hour glucose tolerance test since I failed the 1 hour screen at my 28 week visit. I am hoping that I pass this one. If I don't, the next step per my doctor is a referral to a dietitian...haha...how ironic. I will not be going to see another dietitian...will continue as I am doing since there isn't too much I would need to change other than cutting back on my newfound sweet tooth and having to check my blood sugars several times a day. I will be going in every 2 weeks from now until I am 36 weeks along. Once 36 weeks, I go in for weekly visits. Watson is still very active but now I can feel his entire body moving (like a wave in my belly!) vs jerky kicks and elbows. I still feel great but am having to get up several times a night to go to the bathroom and I have noticed some swelling in my feet and hands first thing in the am and then in the evening.
We are putting the crib together and getting his closet set up this weekend among other small things that need to be done before he makes his grand entrance. While Jason was painting the nursery last weekend, my mom and I went shopping for curtains and other nursery details. The nursery is painted (looks really good!), curtains are hung and the chest of drawers is in there as of last weekend. My dad drove the rocker/ottomon up yesterday from Albany and helped Jason move it into the nursery as well. It matches perfectly! I can't wait for us to finish everything this weekend. Once we finish, I will post pictures! We will still have the details to finish up and I will post pics once it is completely finished as well.
