28 week check up

Just got home from the 28 week appointment.  I passed the glucose test with flying colors (110) but the bloodwork showed that I have a bit of anemia happening.  The dr is going to let it go for the next two weeks and then recheck. I was told that I have to stat using a cane...*grumble* I crushed my hip when I was a teen and the pregnancy is starting to take it's toll on me.  So for now I will use the cane as the dr did say if I don't take it easy he will make me use a wheelchair...*blech*

Awww... bummer about the cane, but it is better than a wheelchair, right?  I had my glucose screen & anemia check last Thursday and haven't heard back from the doctors office.  I need to call them tomorrow to see how I did.  I feel like I am waiting for a grade or something!  I have been anemic in the past while not pregnant (but was a vegetarian my entire life, up until this past January), so HOPEFULLY I will be fine in that department.  Good job on passing the glucose screen :)
