We'll that time of year as arrived ..I'm in my 3rd trimester according to my OB! Finally! Good news and OK news arrived last week. I passed my glucose tolerance test but barley . I was right on the edge of having GD. I don't want to jinx myself but I feel that when we decided to have baby #3 I will have it because each baby gets me closer to it. I've read a bunch of studies and I guess its very common to have it but either way BOO to that. I have been doing my best to eat healthy and exercise this entire pregnancy so I'm already on the right track. I had my 28 week appointment yesterday and I haven't even gained a 1/3 of what I gained with Ethan and that makes me SUPER happy . I guess eating right and exercising does have a lot to do with it, who knew? :) We made an appointment with Dr. Ashford on April 19th to discuss the C-Section date and what goes along with having a planned C-Section rather than a emergency one like last time. Dr.Ashford is the same doctor who performed my surgery for my cervical cancer that I had when I was 19-20. I trust him with my life! He's such a great man . Honestly, people might think I'm nuts but I'm so happy to be getting a C-Section for the second time. Labor is just not for me and I had the worst labor with Ethan I seriously just wanted to die..no fun. I was glad to hear the words C-Section come from my doctor at the 26th hour. The day of the C-Section will be between the 21st and the 25th of June. So that leaves me with a little less than 11 weeks left!!
On Saturday Drew and I have a HD 4/D Ultrasound just for fun. We had one with Ethan but it was done at the hospital because they thought I had low amniotic fluid . They had a 3/D machine and it was so neat to see his sweet little face. Cant wait to see what this little guy looks like. We think that Ethan looks like Drew and has my personality which is pretty high strung and can be "slightly" dramatic at times hehe:) I hope that this little guy looks like me this time and has Drew's laid back and calm personality :) I wonder what it would be like to have a newborn/baby/toddler that sleeps????
I'll post the 4/D pics on Saturday !

P.S. We'll be in Florida June 18th - 26th, so maybe we can se baby boy Sunday - late afternoon/early evening? :)
I'm so excited for you guys! I hope these 11 weeks go quickly for you.
Already talking about #3?! That's so awesome. I have to admit, I'm jealous. Good luck with everything!
