Glowing And Growing

7 Month Belly Up-Close

As you can clearly see, I've really POPPED!!!!Today was my 7 month appointment. Madden's heartbeat was 135. It's usually in the 150's, but the doc said it would decrease throughout my pregnancy. The normal range is anywhere from 120-160. I have gained another pound; which puts my total weight gain at 4 pounds. That's so hard to believe! I feel huge, but apparently it's all baby. I was very sick in the beginning of my pregnancy and lost a little bit of weight, so I think I'm just starting to catch back up to where I need to be. Although I'm measuring close to 30 weeks, Dr. Greve is not going to change my due date. I'll be full term on August 7, so we'll just have to see when Madden decides to arrive. I also had my glucose test today. They gave me 2 minutes to down a PURE sugar drink on an empty stomach.....that's just wrong! I felt horrible after drinking it. An hour later, I had my blood taken. I should get my results by Thursday. Wish me luck! I go back for my 30 week check-up in 2 weeks:)

This morning before I went to the doctor.......feeling GREAT!

This is what I felt like after the BIG BAD glucose test.
