Today was my 28 week appointment. I am currently 27 weeks and 4 days. So far the doctor is comfortable with my weight gain (but I of course am not). I have gained between 18-20 pounds so far and hoping (rather unsuccessfully) that I will not gain any more weight. I am measuring between 28 and 29 weeks right now. As time goes on we will see if that actually means anything. I am continuing to have contractions, so every now and then I have to kick my feet up and push fluids.
Ethan definitely kicks a lot. I remember Loryn moving around a lot, but I swear this little boy kicks stronger and more often. Loryn and Eric have both gotten to feel the movements, and it is so crazy to look down and see him kicking and moving. Sadly neither Eric nor Loryn understand that he doesn't kick on command. At least Eric doesn't get upset about it. Loryn spent one evening yelling at my stomach when Ethan wouldn't kick for her like she had asked. Loryn definitely likes to come and cuddle and put her head on my belly. Not sure if she likes listening or just wants to cuddle with her mommy.
Today, I also had my glucose test. Ugh, I hated it more this time than the last, but at least this time I didn't break out in a cold sweat and almost get sick. I will tell you that the drink tasted like ice cold flat orange slice. Yuck! Will find out in a week or so if I passed or failed. Hoping I passed as I do not want to repeat this test and have to sit through it for 3 hours (as opposed to the 1 hour test I had today). My next appointment is at 30 weeks.
