I had an appt. yesterday which besides hearing little man's heartbeat was NOTHING as fun as the others have been :). I guess I am just in the stretch til the end with la-tee-dah appts :). Although that heartbeat is ALWAYS a welcomed sign!
What was not welcomed was the scale! I am surprised it did not give a GROAN when I got on it because oh my goodness gracious, I AM A SMALL MAN! I told Brad that I will be ready to body slam him by the time I am done weighing in with this big boy. RIDICULOUS! And yes I know I am pregnant.. But STILL :)... It's a SHOT TO THE HEART as my favorite permed singer Bon Jovi would say LOL!
Well the good ol body'o'mine reminded me in not such a kind manner last night that there will be no taking breaks when it comes to feeding my face! I am not sure if everyone knows, but last year I was diagnosed with developing hypoglycemia.. aka- BLOOD SUGAR DRAMA! After the endless dr's appts, head scans, evaluations.. the doctors finally narrowed it down to WATCH YOUR SUGARS. It was an exhausting and aggravating voyage but after a few months it seemed to help.. little snacking here and there, no more HI-C Fruit Punch, no more sweet Chardonnays :) you know the OBVIOUS sugar breeders. But of course over time as I felt better, the control of watching or much less being concerned with my sugars fell to the wayside. Well apparenty the "hypoglycemic monster" is back, and what a fabulous time for it to pop it's head in on me.
Out of nowhere last night I FAINTED... I have no clue where it came from but it was so weird.... I was sitting at the computer and I felt really light headed all of a sudden and then started getting those black dots in my eyes... I had my elbows on the desk and went to rest my head in my hands for a second until it blew over and the next thing I knew I am laying on the ground, and Clyde is licking my face! I had my sunglasses on my head so I cut my head open by the glasses. I sat up and was sitting there trying to realize what had just happened and I just started sweating, then it was all done and I felt normal. Of course first thing I think is oh my god, Brady, but I landed more on my side... and he has been movin' and groovin' like nobody's business so he is fine. I am not too sure what happened but it came on fast! That is what is creepy to me because usually I can feel it if it is a "sugar" issue.. I feel clammy or weak.... If I would have went to go downstairs when this happened I would have fallen down the stairs, that is how QUICKLY it came about. I was out for maybe a minute or 2... and it was like I was taking a nap or something. Very, very strange... I spoke with my doctors nurse and told her of the sugar drama monster that loves me and she thinks after us talking for a while that my blood sugar dropped DRASTICALLY.. I have drank soooooo much water so I know I wasn't dehydrated but I hadn't snacked as much. But it is just crazy, because when this happened when I was at the winery it was very slow coming and I just had to sit down and chill and drink some very cold water. So it is very weird! Anyways, so what was determined is that I need to constantly snack (keep in mind the body slamming I am aiming for :O) ) and if I feel even a little funny to call them and we will do my blood work sooner then the August 31st appt. that I have scheduled. Such a weird coincidence because at the appt. yesterday is when I scheduled the blood work, and then this happened last night. I was joking about it with the nurse and said, APPARENTLY THE TEST IS NOT GOING TO COME BACK WELL :). So we will see!
Besides that we will be moving into Austin no later then the weekend of August 28-30! But possibly, and make that very possibly, moving on the 15th! I can't wait! I scheduled an appt. to meet a doctor that will be bringing our sweet Brady into this world for Sept. 11th! She was telling me that starting at 26 weeks we will be going to the doctor every other week, and then after 35 weeks it's every week.. I can't believe that in less then 4 weeks we will be going every other week and be in the final home stretch! I am so freaking excited to meet this little "gutt kicker" that I could just scream!! It's such an exciting, anxiety filled feeling that you just want to yell outloud :). Or it could be my weird self too :). So exciting! Things are going great (with the exception of the oddness of last night) and I just feel so blessed.
I hope everyone is well! We will write, or see you soon!! XOXO!
