I had another doctor's appointment yesterday. They checked my glucose levels and thankfully, they're fine. Our midwife, Tom Lloyd, says the baby seems to be happy since a moving baby is a happy baby. He was moving so much yesterday! Of course that could have been from the sugar blast I got for my glucose test. Tom says the baby is around the 3 lb range from what he could tell, and his head is still down like I thought. It's weird to think he's riding around upside down all the time, but he must be planning ahead like his mom does.I was surprised at how much weight I've gained so far. No wonder I feel so heavy! I am heavy! I've gained almost 40 lbs already, and pictures always surprise me, too. I guess I don't feel as big as I look... or more accurately, I feel big, but I don't think I should. I eyeball a space between chairs in the cafeteria, and then I don't fit through like I used to, and I can't suck it in. Tom said not to worry as long as I'm staying active and making good eating choices. I'll just gain whatever I need to gain. It's just weird to adjust to a changing body. At least I'll have a great "before" picture to compare with my weight loss after baby comes.
