27 weeks - It's hard to believe that 14 weeks ago, I was celebrating making it out of the first trimester. That there was still so much anxiety around the whole pregnancy and whether or not it would continue to be full term. Now, I find myself here. It is time to get my head around the fact that I need to get the baby's room together. I have to arrange the furniture, go through clothes and put them away. At least we did put the crib together. Right now there is peace, but other fears - being a mother to an infant at 40. What will PPD be like this time? Will I have it at all or will it be magnified?
I go for my gestational diabetes test this Thursday. I'm really hoping that I don't have it this time as well. So far there hasn't been any sugar in my urine. I know that if I do have it, it won't have been my fault... just a complication of pregnancy... however I will still feel a little bad. Especially since I gave up chocolate for lent and fought through many a strawberry vanilla Timmie's doughnut craving.
69% complete... wow.
