29 weeks

Super Bowl Weekend was a lot of fun. I decided to contribute 'Pizza Broetchen' - German pizza baguettes and we had a great time at our friends house. Aaaah, food - one of my favorite subjects during this pregnancy. It's hard to imagine this kind of hunger when you are not pregnant.

One of my least favorite things was the glucose testing. I was nervous about the one-hour glucose testing already since the only thing that kept me from feeling nauseous first thing in the morning was to eat as soon as I open my eyes. With the Glucose Tolerance Test they said I don't have to fast, but I could - I figured it would be better to fast and go in first thing in the morning. The thought of drinking the sugary solution on an empty stomach was no fun but I actually managed better than I thought. They let you pick your flavor and then I sat there in the waiting room for a full hour to get my blood drawn afterwards. Unfortunately the result came back a 143 and they were looking for up to 130 which meant that I now had to go to get the 3-hour Glucose testing done. And I was so happy to made it through the 1-hour, haha.

Oh well....shortly afterwards I was hit by a cold that just didn't want to go away and actually stayed with me for about 2 weeks. Interestingly enough even a cold can't kill a pregnant woman's appetite. :) It just makes breathing harder while eating.

The nursery renovation is still in progress and now that the French Doors were installed they are being painted white. Here is a little update on the nursery at this point:



More updates to follow soon. :)
