30 weeks!!

we finally made it to 30 weeks. so happy! next big goal, 32 weeks.

once we hit 32 weeks i will let myself start to realize that is baby on the way. i've been too scared up until now to even think that the baby was coming because i felt like my body might take that as a cue that it would be ok to go into labor. in the same vein, i'm too scared to read or watch about birth for now. maybe around 36 weeks i can think about the birth??

OB appointments last week were good, NSTs went fine, and the ultrasound showed that the cord blood flow was back to normal. feeling happy but very cautious.

gestational diabetes going ok, testing blood sugars is getting old. :( counting carbs is totally new to me, pre-pregnancy me only ever counted fat content. i've found so far that pizza is a big blood sugar problem for me... so that is out for now. but i've been able so far to add in cookies or ice cream and haven't had an issue.

  1. Congrats on 30 weeks and glad cord blood flow is looking good. I have GD as well and pizza doesn't work for me, either. Boo!
    Hope all continues to go well for you...
