Pregnancy Update

I don't have a pictures but according to Jeremy I am huge!!! I actually feel smaller than with the other ones, if that is possible.

I took the gestational diabetes test and failed it and then I went into the hospital and took the 4 hour test. I was sure I failed it but it came back normal except for the second hour it went up some and then went normal. So am not labeled as having gestational diabetes but I still am suppose to watch what I eat. For my Birthday Jeremy got me an exercise bike, I try to do 5 to 10 miles(at a super slow pace, I tried to do it fast the first day but I had contraction the whole next day) on it a day which I think has helped a lot.

As for aches and pains when ever I lay down and try to move or switch sides I feel like the muscles under my belly are being torn apart. I have felt this with the last two pregnancies too but I thought it was normal so I have just dealt with but come to find out by talking with several people they have never had this happen to them and that there is a little band you can put around your tummy to make it feel better, I think I need to find me one.

Of course there are other aches and pains but that's life, only three more months:)

I'm glad things are going well. Be careful with your belly because it is common to have the muscles separate. Nothing too bad just a hard recovery. I have the band and I loved it for both pregnancies. I am so excited for you.
