Presidio Stewardship Day

Cecily helped out planting trees at the Presidio Stewardship day with her preschool. Then had fun playing with her friends at the playground. It was a chilly May day!

 

Third trimester

At Kaitlyn's First Communion on May 1st. I asked Cecily to give her baby sister a "kiss", but she looks like she is biting her. A sign of things to come....?

So I am now officially in the third trimester. 28 weeks down, 12 to go. This pregnancy has been a little more complicated than with Cecily. Nothing too serious, just feeling very heavy, achey, tired, anemic (taking iron) and was diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes which came as a little shock. So now I have alot more appointments, with the endocrinologist, the nutritionist, and extra ultrasounds. I also have to eat a fairly regimented diet and poke my finger 4 times a day to test my blood sugar.

But for the most part things are good. The baby girl is moving ALOT and seems very healthy. I had an ultrasound on Tuesday to check on her size and she was measuring 2 # 10 oz, which was right around 50th%. So she is right on track. The ultrasounds consistently put me as a few days further along, showing a due date of 7/28. My doctor says because of the GD I wont go past my due date, and she might induce me the Thurs or Fri prior to my due date, but we will see.

Here are the ultrasound photos, you can see her cute little face pretty well.
