Today I'm halfway through my 25th week, with only 15 more to go! I took my glucose tolerance test this morning to screen for gestational diabetes. Had to drink the orange cola, which wouldn't be so bad, but it made my throat burn and I was really nauseous for about 10 minutes afterwards. Should find out the results of my bloodwork next week during my routine checkup. I hadn't eaten for 12 hours before the test, so I stopped by McDonald's for breakfast on my way into work. I figured that if I do test positive for gestational diabetes, I won't be seeing another Sausage Biscuit anytime soon, so I really enjoyed this one just in case!
With Memorial Day coming up, Nathaniel and I decided to extend our holiday weekend by taking a vacation day on Friday, so it will be a four day weekend for us! Our original plan was to have a relaxing day off with no plans, but I've since scheduled visits with a pediatrician (Nathaniel's when he was younger), and two potential daycare centers. Since I'm planning to go back to work full time, we need to reserve a spot for Katie somewhere.
The nursery furniture is on order, our spot in childbirth class is reserved....I think I have all of the major stuff covered, but sometimes I wonder if there's anything I'm forgetting. I panicked today because I just remembered that we needed to get the pediatrician lined up. Between daycares, scheduling my LOA from work, getting the nursery ready, etc., I have a weird feeling that something is going to slip through the cracks. Sometimes I feel like the mom in 'Home Alone' when she realized they left their kid behind. I guess it comes with the territory :)
