i am now 31 weeks and 4 days. time is going by so fast. i had my baby shower over the weekend and had a lot of fun.

i had to change my diet with having the GD . It is hard not to have some of the sweets. I have to test my sugar 4 time a day which is not very much fun.  I am happy that I have only gained 14 lbs which I think is great for my first pregnancy.


I hope every one is doing good.

Good luck to all that are TTC

Sherry Maybe u will get over this quick!!! It is good everyting is up and ready to go. I am guessing u never did get a shower. It is still not too late. U need one!!!

All: I am doing good. I have but on 6-8 lbs on the gonal f this month. I could cry putting on that much weight and not being prego. I have felt ovulation cramps on my right side the last 3 days. we bd onSunday, tues, and wednesday. I took trigger on monday at 8:30 We did not do iui this time. Just bd.I am thinking +. It would make it a July baby which is a month that i always wanted a baby born in.  it would be due right there at my sisters and mil birthday. How cool would that be. I am think GOd for his blessings.

You'll be fine Carrie!!  Just have to watch what you eat.  As for me My dd was sick on Monday pukin all day - musta been a 24hr flu bug cause she was fine on Tues but i still kept her home to make sure.  WEll yesterday I started to feel the sore throat (which isn't that bad) but today i just puked!!!  God I hate this feeling.  At least Im home now and can rest but still - I have no motivation to do anything  lol.   36 wk appt on Monday :)  Ive gained a total of 20lbs so far so Im happy about that.  I gained 70 with dd so this is awesome :)   I spent the last week going through all my dd old clothes to take out all the unisex stuff i can use and sorted per size so it will be easier to sell in the spring :)  Crib is up - room is painted Its just a waiting game now.  Im stocked up on diapers and ready to go :)   As for my job I'll just be looking for something closer to home or endu p staying at home and take in 2 kids for daycare.   How is everyone else doing?

Carrie: Stay positive!!! Dr's can be wrong!!! I had GD with both pregnancies and was told how HUGE my babies were going to be. I myself was a 9lb baby so assumed they were right. They did the twice a week stress check and u/s to make sure they were doing well for the last 4 wks of my pregnancy. Well, my ds was 7lbs 4oz and they told me he was going to be over 9lbs and my ds was 7lbs 1oz so they were perfectly normal size. Also, my sis just had her baby today... Dr said it was over 10lbs early so made her deliver early and the baby was 6lbs 14oz. I hope you can get the GD under control by diet, it is hard but wasn't bad just took some getting used to. Also.. with my ds I didn't even get the 3 hour test done until 33wks so I was afraid I  had waited to long to get it under control but that wasn't the case at all. Good luck :)

I am 30 weeks and 2 days. I found out to day that I do have gestational diabetes. I am was really was hoping every thing would be ok. I have to go to a diabetes clinic. i just have to wait for them to call me to make an appt. I had my appt yesterday and the baby is on the big side which is to be expected with GD.
