Blood Test

Last Friday I went and did my glucose test and they drew blood for that and to test if I was anemic.  I called them yesterday to find out the result, since they hadn't let me know anything yet, and everything came back normal!  She said my glucose score was a 91 and as long as it's below 140 they aren't concerned, and my hematocrit score was a 36.7.  She said it's not a great score, but not bad enough where I need to take a supplement.  I'm so releived these came back normal!  I'm not that great of an eater, health-wise, and if I would have had either one of these it would have made it so difficult to have a more healthy and balanced diet than I'm already trying to get.

I told Colton that it seems like my body LOVES pregnancy.  Before being pregnant I would get moody and over emotional about a lot of things, I would get very frequent and painful headaches and it seems like since I've been pregnant all of those things have gone away and everything has been so easy for me. I told him I guess that means God wants us to have lots of babies :)  Of course I'm starting to get all of the pregnancy pains that come along with it.  I went walking yesterday evening and noticed I am having more and more trouble getting a good deep breath and that if I push down on my belly that it actually helps!  And oh my goodness my hips!  I've always had big hips so I didn't think they would need to stretch a whole lot for a baby, but that is the one thing that is killing me right now.  Not too much longer though...only 9 more weeks!
