27w 3d

So I have to go to the COB clinic. Actually it is the C-Ob clinic...(Complicated OB). It is this darned GD! I am so not looking forward to this. So next week I will have 3 different baby related appts. at the Navy Hospital. Monday morning will be my 28 weeks OB appt. Wow, 28 weeks. I am getting to where I am not so worried about baby. At 28 weeks she would have a really good chance. Tuesday morning is that C-Ob appt. That will be fun - NOT. I am sure Insulin is going to be advised. I don't know which will be worse...insulin shots or growing old and dying while waiting that the pharmacy there. Ugh. Then Wednesday I have another big u/s at the fetal assesment unit to check for growth, etc. Hubby is coming to that !!!

I totally blew it tonight at dinner. Dad was over for his birthday and we had Bratwurst. While I did have a whole wheat bun with it - I also had some potato salad, followed by a decent sized slice of ice cream pie from Baskin Robbins. Even though I walk a brisk mile an hour later my sugars were still a whopping 161. I was so shocked. I am sure, had I not taken that long walk that my numbers would have been up and over 200. Yikes. That is very scary for me.

Over all baby girl is doing well. She is moving more. Last night I was laying in bed (on my back for a few minutes- bad momma), and I saw what must have been a hand or a foot (for it looked like a lump) move all the way across my belly. It was soooo cool! I absolutely love this part of pregnancy! I love that Hubby isn't freaked out by it. Still no name for this wee one. Hubby finally put his foot down on the name I love. I had been calling her the name for the past few weeks, and last night he finally said the final "no" on that name. Bummer. Back to square one. I fear this one is going to be a "no name" until after birth. True we still have a hair over 12 weeks...but we are no where near compramising. I have names I love. He doesn't really love any so for but keeps bringing up names I hate. I feel like we are standing on opposite sides of a great chasm.
