27 Week Doc Apt

Today I have another Doctors Apt, I will be having my Glucose Test.

 You are not allowed to eat sugar before your test. If you know me, that is a pretty difficult thing to ask. I know it is weird but that is why I decided to wait to have my test in the afternoon. Yes, that does mean I have to try and go all day without eating any to very little sugar but, that is good, any excuse to not eat sugar is a good one to me. I knew it would be challenging but also at the same time I knew it would be helpful, relying on God for a little extra self control today=0).

They also ask that you eat lightly all day. What the heck?! I am almost 6 1/2 months pregnant… I don’t rally know what “lightly” means but when baby is hungry, there isn’t anything I can do! Not that I eat a whole lot anyway, but, it is not like I can really starve myself as if I were not pregnant.  

So far so good.

On a side note, I am growing out of my shirts. For a while I was doing well, still being able to wear a lot of my non prego clothes that have the empire waists (most of my shirts) or my loose fit t- shirts… nope. I now have about 5 work shirts and a couple of dresses but as it gets cooler I can’t wear the dresses any longer. I have about 0 casual things to wear. Visit me at bed time and you will find that the only T-shirts I have only fit right under my chest, they don’t really stretch over my belly too well. I feel like one of those men that sit in front of the TV with their giant beer bellies hanging out, it is pretty cute. NOT. So, I think I am going to try  Goodwill. I have had some good luck at Ross (one of my personal favorite stores for clothes and home decor btw) but I am really really trying to pinch the penny and thinking that maybe I could find something even cheaper at the Goodwill (probably not very stylish). We shall see.
