27 Weeks

I've been feeling really optomistic today. It is strange,though, just how unwell I've felt the past couple of weeks, I suppose it was just hormones. I have no idea if it also had anything to do with the fact that I was feeling moody right around the time I would have had my period, but if not, it was an eyebrow raising coincidence. At least, now, I am feeling much better.

My glucose test was last week. I do not yet know the results, but I suppose my doctor will let me know when I go back in next week. I am now at the point where I see the doctor once every two weeks instead of four. As far as the test goes, they made me drink this syrupy stuff that was orange flavored. My mother had warned me that it would be just plain awful, but I don't really think it was all that bad. It was just really super sweet. It was kinda like flat orange soda. After exactly one hour, the nurse drew some blood from my arm, bandaged it up, and sent me on my way. The hubby had taken the day off work just for the heck of it that day and so we spent the rest of the day running around and enjoying each other's company. We had lunch at City Bites, which was delicious, and I watched him bowl a few games at the local bowling alley. I loved just getting to spend time with my sweetheart all day long, it really did my heart some good.

Baby Ashley is still getting bigger and stronger. She was really having a good time rolling around inside me the other day and I told Hubby to put his hand on my belly to feel her acrobatics. His eyes widened and he said "Wow! She's really moving in there!" It was a neat experience for the both of us to feel her movements.

One more thing, I hesitate to add this because it is embarassing, however natural it may be, but it appears that I have started leaking colostrum (pre-milk). I do not believe that I need absorbant pads just yet, but I feel that may be a possible necessity within the next month or so. Like I said, embarassing to admit, but normal.

Okie dokie, I'll give more updates next week!
