Just a quick update on my appt yesterday. I've gained another 8 lbs. They blame it on the holidays & me not gaining any at first, so nothing alarming. The practitioner also measured my uterus & I measured at 24 weeks instead of 26. However, I'm sure my Dr. will not use this info as he only goes by ultrasounds. I drank that nasty orange juice & had to wait for an hour to get my blood checked. I will not get any results back unless they were abnormal. So I'm hoping I don't get a call. Usually it's within 24 hrs, but since my Dr. has to sign off on them & he isn't in town, I'll have to wait till he gets back either way.Gavin has a very strong heartbeat & my b.p. was up a bit but I was told it was from all the sugar I just drank from that glucose test. I'm guessing that on top of all my stress didn't help. I honestly thought everyone in the waiting room could see him kicking my tummy b/c the sugar got him moving like he was on speed!! LOL. I only have one more monthly appointment left I was told then onto the twice a month!! YAY!
On another note, I'm sure everyone's heart is weighing heavily on the Haiti disaster. I know mine is. If there is one thing I think you can do that will only take a second of your time, it's to say a quick prayer. Say it for everyone that was involved. Please. One of my best friend's, Jennifer's aunt and uncle live in Haiti doing mission work & this has greatly affected them. The only news her family was told was that her uncle was pulled from rubble, and still unconscious & was transported to another hospital in critical condition. Her aunt however, has yet to be found & the embassy is expecting the worse. If there is anything you can do, just please say a prayer.

Thanks for your sweet comment today. It's been a while since I've been over here and hadn't left any comments since that one last time. Hope you don't mind if I follow along. I love reading other people's thoughts on their pregnancy jouney.
I will be sure to say a prayer for your friend's Aunt and Uncle. I can't seem to watch the news these days without crying. It's so sad.
