Week 29 - Swelling

 

Baby Charlee is the size of a Butternut Squash this week.  I had my 28 week checkup last week and I am measuring right on.  I took the sugar test and haven't heard anything so no news is good news.  That drink was like pouring straight sugar down my throat and made me feel sick and jittery.  When the girl took my blood it burned while she was drawing it.  I have also started swelling in the last week in my ankle/feet area which looks awful. 

 

All of the furniture is set up in the nursery how we like it.  We just have to hang all of the décor which I hope we can do on Sunday.  We are taking a birthing class this Saturday from 8:30-5:30 that includes a tour of the hospital.  I hope to learn a ton about the delivery process and breastfeeding.
