I have been so busy putting away all of the baby gifts we have gotten and catching up on Thank You's to friends and family for all of the baby gifts we have received! It is crazy how much stuff this tiny little baby needs before she is even joining us. We have so many clothes for sweet Baby T. She has more clothes than mom and dad.
I am suffering a lot of pelvic pain today.
Which has resulted in me choosing to skipping yoga yesterday morning.
This afternoon I will do yoga and hope all goes well with that. It is kind of cold out today. My husband is tilling up the garden so next weekend we can plant our plants.
We have run into the loveliest issue, I will have to run out to the store to buy more Thank You cards as I still have 15 to write and less than 10 left. I bought 40 a few months ago, surely thinking that would be enough. But everyone showed up for Baby T. She is so loved already.
I had the worst gas pains of my pregnancy last night.
I think it was because my husband made me spicy green beans, which were delicious, but I think may have been too spicy for my body to take right now. And honestly, I need to slow down and take steps back on the spiciness because my mother-in-law credits her high spice cravings to my husband being born with terrible reflux and throwing up constantly.
I also got foul-smelling gas and diarrhea all day yesterday. We discussed if I have possibly been eating too many eggs because I need the protein but I am not really wild about meat so we substitute most of the meats with eggs.
Baby T went super crazy active yesterday afternoon.
But has not been moving much since.
I, of course, want to check on her with my Doppler to make sure she is okay. I am sure she is, I just don't feel her too much because we have that pesky anterior placenta.
I am still dealing with a lot of gas today.
Which I blame on drinking these stupid fizzy waters that I have been craving in the morning.
We had more eggs and cheese and tomatoes for breakfast. My fasting blood sugar was 81, and after eating breakfast it was still 81. I don't know what that means, but I guess I did not really eat any carbs at breakfast, so that makes sense.
I am not very good at eating still.
I make myself eat every 3 hours, but I do not want to. I crave little at all. I crave diet coke. Yesterday I was hungry but nothing sounded good so I just kept finding small things to snack on. But I don't snack before bed anymore.
My fasting blood sugars have been great though.
I don't know if I really even have gestational diabetes.
We ate breakfast at 10:45 so I will make something to eat at 1:45, but nothing sounds good to me yet. We have an avocado we need to eat and tomatoes and cucumbers so maybe I will come up with something with those.
I will get to do yoga before then, so maybe I will come up with something that sounds good.
I am not swelling, which I think is mostly because it is so cold again. I had like 2 days of swelling last week and I was expecting this to stay.
We have less than 49 days until Baby T will be here.
I am slowly nesting.
Mostly everything is set up for Baby T. I have a lot of laundry to do since the baby shower though because I want to wash everything we got so we know it is just gentle detergent against her baby sensitive skin.
I have a lot of cleaning and rearranging to do in our bedroom, though. I have a bedside table that will be moved to the other side of the room in the corner to make space for Baby T's bedside sleeper.
As I write this, I realize we need to buy many more sheets for her.
We need to place our after baby shower order on amazon though. We got many, many gifts for Baby T, but still need sheets for her bedside sleeper and bassinet.
