Jaci goes to the dr tomorrow and after that goes ever 2 weeks.  Time is getting closer and we are getting more excited.  Her inlaws are coming for the month of March to build an addition to their house for the baby so soon we can fix up the baby room.  Wish I could find cowgirls bed bumpers etc.  So far I can't find horses except for boys
Her theme is jungle luv and the giraffe looks like a horse hahaha

shlanin - good luck on your next appointment.

I was wondering - of all of you ladies that are due before me, (I'm due July 4th - or the end of June), how did you all fare on the glucose screening test? I am sooo dreading that again. I'm pretty sure that I will have that test done on my "next" appointment. I have an appointment on Tuesday (regular visit) and then another follow up ultrasound on Wednesday with the specialist.

I'm just wondering if they have improved it or changed the flavors since 6 years ago when I had to take it for the first time? Mine was about 8-12 oz of this luke warm Orange Crush tasting liquid with what seemed to have about 2+ cups of sugar in it. bleeegh! Nasty!

Did anyone get diagnosed with gestational diabetes? I was fortunate not to have it with my first, but every pregnancy is different so I'll keep my fingers crossed.

My doctors do the test at 26 weeks.  So we go for our 24 week check-up Monday and they will send the drink home with us. Then we will go back in two weeks, when I am 26 weeks. They tell you to drink it an hour before your appt and they do the test as soon as we arrive.  I kept it in the frige last time and it wasn't TOO bad.  I think it was something like 6 oz.  So after our appt Monday, we start going every two weeks, Fun Fun!!

I have my test at my next appt (May 2nd).  They just told me to fast after midnight the night before.  I hope it's a little better than last time.

Jaci failed her test by 10 points and had to re take it with more good stuff to drink and blood every hour for three more times.  She passed the second one....
She failed the first one cause they told her to fast after midnight but she thought a swallow of Dr Pepper would not hurt......WRONG!!!!!

Unfortunetly i did not pass the first test nor the second test.  So I had to go to an endocriniologist. I was bound and determined to control it by diet because I did not want to be put on insulin.  I have to check my blood 4 times a day and I have to say that I have done great!!!! 

Monday is getting closer by the minute....I sure hope that I still have some of these finger nails by then!!!!!  Today was my last day of work.  I took off tomorrow and Friday to get things done around the house and have enough our last few free days.........and try to get as much sleep as we can for now.

shlanin - hope you are taking it easy since the big day is coming.

Question to all - Have any of you had, or are you planning on having a 3D ultrasound video made of the baby? I didn't with my first, but I am going to with this one. Just curious if you did, where did you go?

The dr's office that I went to with my first did them but I didn't get one because it was expensive.  The one I'm at now doesn't offer them but they can send you to someone who does do them.

We are going next Wed the 18th to have ours done. And they also can do this over the internet where Mikes mom dad and whoever else logs on with our password can watch everything as we are on the computer. The place is called A Miracle Moment. It should be cool!

My mom is the one who found it.

We went once with Jaycee at 28 weeks.  They couldn't really get any good pics, so we were suppose to go back. and never did.  I didn't really like it.  JMO.  And there was no way I was draggin Jason back in there.  He said he didn't like the idea of his unborn child looking somewhat like an alien?!  LOL  Go figure!!  We went to the Open Imaging Place in MP.  Not sure where you are located, but I would think your doctor could tell you the closest one.  It just wasn't for us!!

Well i had an appt on Friday and was still not dialated but the doctor doesnt want me going past next week.  So I have to the hospital on Sunday at 3pm and they are going to start some of the process.  Then they will start to induce on Monday morning at about 530am.  We agreed that if we werent at a certain point by a certain time, if i wasnt progressing like i should then we would go ahead and do a c-section.  So either way we will have a baby on Monday!!!!!

YEA!!!!!!!!!!!
