Baby H - Week 29!

So far the diabetes clinic doesn't think I need to be on insulin but this may change. During the third trimester the placenta secretes a hormone that suppresses insulin production just in time for your body to need extra insulin (2-3x) and basically it'll probably just get worse. Wooo. The whole appointment was kinda depressing. 

How far along: 

29 weeks as of  07/25/2015  

Where is the time going!?

How big is baby:

Pineapple :) She's estimated at 3 lbs and 16" long! Her breathing should be getting more rhythmic and frequent. She may be hiccuping if she swallows too much fluid. She has a routine now and seems to be awake in the afternoon and in the late evening.

Weight gain:

-2 total

Gender:

Girl! 

Symptoms:

Nausea & heartburn are still going strong. Gestational Diabetes is a pain in the ass. Feeling pretty tired this week.

Sleep: 

Sleep is still pretty good. I'm thinking it's from the plethora of medication I'm taking that causes drowsiness.

Food Cravings: 

Food just makes me sad this week.

this was my Sunday dinner dessert

Movement:  

Less kicks but I'm feeling more bigger movements like she's rolling around or something. She's still head up as far as I can tell.

Belly Button: 

In.

Stretch Marks: 

I think I might be getting a few new ones! I'm not going to bother counting them, I already have so many it doesn't even matter lol

What I'm looking forward too:  

Meeting her, our next scan etc
