3 More Months

My due date is in 3 months! It's kinda hard to believe. I love feeling the baby move. He/she is a very active little thing. According to babycenter, he/she is about 2 pounds and 14 1/2 inches longs. My next prenatal appointment is Tuesday to perform the awful glucose screening. This test requires me to drink a nasty, flat soda type drink (high in sugar) and then test my blood sugar level. I failed this last time I was pregnant and had to take the more horrible 3-hour which I also failed. Therefore, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and had to test my blood sugar 4 times a day! Needless to say, this was not fun. Hopefully I will pass this time.

Things I will not miss in 3 months:
  • crazy heartburn
  • having to pee every hour
  • being HUGE
  • having to roll out of bed (already!)
  • big-eyed looks when I say my due date isn't until October
Things I am looking forward to in 3 months:
  • holding this precious bundle
  • finally knowing if he/she is a boy or a girl
  • watching Lydia become a big sister
  • watching my family grow
  • unconditional love for another person
I didn't do the weekly cute belly photos for either pregnancy, but here is a few snap shots to compare:
7 Months with Lydia
Over 8 months with Lydia.

5.5 months with baby #2
Almost 6 months with baby #2
The big question is what will this baby's name be? Well, we've chosen: (I can't rotate video...)
Tyler or Madelyn!
