GD and Baby Girl


Sweet baby girl's profile.

I went back to my maternal-fetal medicine specialist on Monday. Everything is looking good. I had an ultrasound and baby girl is looking great. She is measuring in the 50th percentile. That means if you compared her to 100 other 30 weeks  gestation babies she is right in the middle. Not too big and not too small. She is weighing approximately 3.10 lbs +/- 10 ounces. Her limbs and head are measuring slightly ahead. She must take after her Dad and brother! While the tech was doing the scan we could see her sticking her tongue out and smacking her lips. The tech also pointed out that she was also practicing breathing. Its so amazing we can see all of this long before babies are even born. 


My blood glucose numbers still look good. I am still allowed to only track 2 days a week provided I stick to the diet. I have done really good but did try to sneak in some jelly beans on Easter. It made my numbers a lot higher than normal so it looks like I won't be testing out any more candies! One big thing about this diet is it is constant trial and error. I feel like I am always testing my body just to see what it can handle. I've really only found a few foods that it can't. Jelly beans and mini cupcakes are at the top of the list! That is ok, I really don't need them anyway!
