I just wanted to say that I'm sick of being hungry and eating all the time! The current average daily count is 8 times a day and I'm still hungry after that.
It's 7:30 pm and I've eaten 6 times. I'm still looking for something, too...
When will the maddness end?!

3D Ultrasound
I had my 28 week appointment yesterday and things seem to be fine. Last night we went in for the 3d ultrasound. I don't have time to write but wanted to include the pictures before I forgot. Here's the little one:
(And, we're in the 3rd trimester now!)

The Results... New Neuro Appt.
Well I got my glucose results back and the doc said everything's normal. So, I'm done with tests for now! Yay! I just have an appt. next Monday to check up on everything. So, hopefully the baby is doing well and growing away.
I also called some MS specialists the other day and I'm glad I did this early. They can't take me until July! So, I have an appt. in July to work on this neuro thing I have going on. I've been counting down the days before the baby, but I keep putting the other situation out of my mind. I guess I can't do anything about it right now, anyway.
Oh yes, get got the nursery furniture in and I love it. Things are coming along. Heck, the shower is coming up and I can't wait. I've gotten lazy these days so I should take and post some pictures.
Lastly, last week a friend came over and took belly pictures for me. She did an awesome job. I sent some out to be printed so I can frame them and put them in my bedroom. I love the pictures.
So, that's it for now. I'm just trying to feel the baby move here and there. I know I'll have new anxiety after the little one's born but for now I'm just trying to work through my current anxieties! We're getting there, though. We have less than 10 weeks until I'm full term.

Hospital Tour and Glucose Test
So last Saturday we took a tour of the hospital. It's actually a very nice facility. The rooms are small, though. The tour lasted an hour and honestly I don't remember one thing the guide told us. I just remember thinking, 'is it too late to change my mind?' and, 'can't the baby stay in me forever?' The thought of labor scares me to death but I guess I have no choice!
And, today I went in for the glucose tolerance test. They gave me a small bottle (like a mini Pepsi bottle) of liquid. It's not nearly as bad as people say it is. It tasted like flat orange pop. They chilled it so that didn't hurt.
I had 5 minutes to down the drink and had to wait for an hour to get my blood drawn. The wait was borning but I sat out in the lobby and talked to Teresa on the phone for a good 20 minutes. She helped me pass the time.
I think this baby is used to sugar because the drink didn't even wake the little one up. He/She was awake all morning before the test, but slept through the sugar rush. I hear that most babies start bouncing around after the mom takes in the sugary drink.
So, now I'm at home for the afternoon and will probably try to entertain the dog here shortly.
