Aww, Ninja, I'm 24 weeks tomorrow too. We're bump twins.
And congrats on your little boy! I have felt the same way... I only want carbs and sugar but I have my glucose test tomorrow at my appt. Bleh. Do you have any plans for the nursery yet? I'll tell you, it feels good to make progress on it. We painted it light grey, and we have a mix of white or grey furniture in there (charcoal grey glider with a navy blue pouf ottoman, white crib, white dresser, grey changing table, white and yellow curtains) with the art or accessories being minimal but generally white, navy, and yellow. It's a work in progress but it makes me feel like I'm doing something. And next month we're getting the other important baby gear (stroller, carseat, etc.). I feel so tired and lazy already after work, but I hear it gets worse in the third tri so I'm trying to maximize effort now!
Becca-- Yay for first coat of paint and registry progress! What color paint did you choose for your little girl's room?
Rubys-- Good luck with your longer glucose test on Wednesday! I see online a lot that women who fail the first very often pass the longer one, so fingers crossed for you!
Abbii-- Glad you're feeling more excited and connected than every and looking forward to your little sweetie. Hope your doctor appt went well yesterday!
Twinklie-- Yay for passing your GD test and everything looking really good with your little boy. That's always a relief. And great to hear your cervix is performing like a rockstar after all it's been through!
AFM, my scan last week went well. Baby was more cooperative this time. All his organs, blood vessels, and structure looks perfect. My cervix, fluid, and placenta placement is all perfect as well. Feels great to hear! But he is in a growth spurt or something because he is BIG. He is at the 97th percentile and measuring quite a bit ahead. Hopefully he slows down a bit toward the end. They want me to come back at 31 weeks to do a repeat scan and see if his growth has regressed to a more average size. It freaks me out a bit, but I hear that these measurements have such a large margin of error and people are incorrectly told their babies are huge all the time. And right now if he's big that's a GREAT thing because it means he's well developed and more viable should anything happen and he need to come out early. Still hope he slows down toward the end though!
but now after sorting that out and seeing how my girls are bonding with her it just makes me so happy and excited to meet her
kinda like the insurance stuff never happened. That is pretty much the main reason why I haven't been around here in awhile too I just didn't want to be judged or bashed and made to feel worse you know? but anyway I'm back and I missed this group so much!
I can't believe most of us hit V-day already! it's getting so exciting, can't wait to see these babes
