Good news - I passed the 3-hour glucose test! I was really happy with the nurse - who was actually nice - called this morning to tell me. The test yesterday wasn't bad, but since my viens are deep they had issues finding my viens for the four different pokes I had to have. They ended up poking me 5 times total and 3 of them were in my hands. OUCH! But it is worth it to know that I passed! I will be tested again the same time normal women are - between 24 and 28 weeks!
I have my ultrasound on Friday and will post a picture from that as soon as I can!
Here is what is new in the land of the baby:
New this week:
Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. You may be daydreaming about your baby as one sex or the other, but the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl. Either way, your baby — about the size of a kidney bean — is constantly moving and shifting, though you still can't feel it.
