28 weeks: Yay Third Tri!

I'm typing this blog post from the comfort of the urgent care. What better place to write about being pregnant than in an uninterrupted space...because you know it will be awhile before they call my name. Nothing like hemorrhoids on a Sunday afternoon. I've never had such bad hemorrhoids, so yeah, just add that to the  list. The thought of sitting in a hard church pew this morning had me at home all morning playing with Elliot.  Great game he made up of laying on the couch and grimacing when getting up. He thought he was so funny!

This week has been up and down. I had a doctor's appointment on Wednesday. Everything looked fine with strong heartbeats and a closed cervix. I'm measuring 35 weeks. At this rate I'll be measuring 11 months when I go in for my c-section! I have my next appointment in about 2 more weeks and that will include another ultrasound.

I did my glucose, gross drink, test on Wednesday as well. I did my best to eat perfectly, but still managed to fail it. I have to go back on Friday for the 3 hour test. Praying that test will show up negative. 

On Tuesday we went out to eat, taking advantage of Green Mill's "kids eat free" deal. Aaron and I kept peeking, let's be honest...staring, at the small family with their huge limo stroller carrying infant twins. They were out. They looked pretty well put together and their toddler  daughter seemed content. They didn't do much eating, but as soon as the rest of their friends showed up, they got to rest their arms- Dad had one baby and Mom had the other, with big sister coloring in the middle. Note that none of  their friends had kids with them, so Aaron and I decided that we need to find some friends without kids, just for occasions like these! Hah! In all seriousness, it was just a little glimpse into our possible world and it kinda fun to see.

P.S. I get to add a little hemorrhoid "surgery" for Monday.
