I can't sleep. I got up at 4:30 am. Bleh. Bad dreams. Also indigestion. When I tried to go back to sleep, baby had hiccups, so that was a no go. I took some medicine and made coffee. I'm waiting for my stomach to settle down.

Yesterday, I saw Karen for my week 28 appointment. I took the 2 hour glucose screen after eating breakfast. Blood sugar was 83, which is quite good. Also have to take an 8 hour fasting blood glucose test. Karen sent the strips and glucose machine home with me to do that Wednesday. I'm relieved that my blood sugar appears normal. If anything, it's a bit low. I can't say I'm surprised as I do tend to get cranky when I haven't eaten.

My fundal height was exactly 28 weeks as well. Baby's heart rate was fine. He also showed his usual fiestiness by kicking the fetal Doppler and running away from it. Starting next visit, Karen is going to start recording baby's position in the womb. I'm very curious about this.
