26 weeks as of yesterday; rounding out my 2nd trimester. Less than 100 days now (97 as of today)! I feel Kaila moving around in there mostly when I'm quietly sitting or lying down. I feel like my stomach spasms sometimes, but maybe it's just my imagination. I keep asking Aaron if he can feel her moving around in there, but he can't yet.
In other news, I'm sick. I thought maybe it was pregnancy symptoms at first, since headache and runny nose are common symptoms of pregnancy, but I'm pretty sure I'm sick now. I have a runny, stuffy nose, sneezing, headache, and a slight cough. I've been taking emergen-C and acetaminophen, but I'd really love to take some ibuprofen. Oh, how I miss you ibuprofen and your wonderous anti-inflammatory properties. I'll just keep trying to get lots of rest and fluids.
The OB appointment was pretty uneventful. We only saw the doctor for about five minutes. It's probably a good thing that everything is checking out alright, though. I went for my one hour glucose tolerance test last week. I fast for 2 hours prior, drink a sweet drink, and they draw blood. Now I need to take a second test because the first indicated that my score was a little high. Even though I was pretty close, the nurse said I should take the second three hour test to determine if I have gestational diabetes. I'm waiting until next week since being sick usually elevates your glucose levels.
Tuesday, 26 weeks
