Nothing really exciting about my appt yesterday. I was prepared for the glucose concoction to be extremely disgusting based on what others have told me, but really...it tasted an awful lot like Orange Crush! No big deal :) The night before my appt and also yesterday during the day, I was having tons of lower abdominal/lower back pain. It was kind of like cramping and burning. Not sure how else to describe it. I was very glad to have an appt that actually coincided with the pain. Dr. H seemed very, very unconcerned, saying "well, that's nerve pain from everything stretching and moving". Okey dokey. Last night I was still really uncomfortable, but today it's a lot better. So
perhaps she was right! I'm also starting to feel a lot of downward pressure at times. It seems kind of early to be uncomfortble, but maybe that is just wishful thinking. I know the 3T will be a b*tch at times! I know I better get used to it. I go back in 4 weeks, and then after that every 2 weeks starts! Getting closer!
I also scheduled a 3-D u/s at an independent place here in town that does them for $100. I thought that seemed pretty reasonable. We won't get another look at him if there are no issues, and even if we do, it won't be a 3-D scan. We do that on 3/9, so I will be 28 weeks at that point. Hopefully it will be really neat. I've been told that if you get a 3-D scan too early, the baby appears too bony, and if you get it too late, they look kind of squashed in there, so hopefully that will be about right.

Maybe it tasted like Orange Crush due to wishful thinking and altered sense of taste due to your pregnancy. Just kidding =P Glad it tasted okay, either way!
Glad the GTT was a breeze for you! FX crossed for great results. The nerve pain you describe is not fun, I hope it will never come back.
Yay! for the 3D peeking, how fun!!!:)
Glad your pregnancy is going so well! I know I've said this before, but to me, your pregnancy is absolutely flying by! You were the first blogger BFP since I started blogging and I can't believe you'll welcome your baby in just a few months! So exciting!
I'm glad the appt went well! I can't believe how close you are either! It doesn't seem like it's been this long. The 3D u/s sounds like it will be well worth it!
Glad the appointment went well! I can't wait to hear about the 3 D ultrasound, $100 does sound like a good deal.
I have to agree with A, you were the first blogger friend BFP and your pregnancy is FLYING by. At least to me :-)
Have a great weekend!
I work with people with Diabetes and Gestational Diabetes and I'm often told that the GTT test drink tastes like Hi-C Orange drink from McDonalds. That could be a problem for me since that is my favorite drink of all time :) Glad you didn't think it tasted that bad :)
Again, another cute outfit!! Love it! (PS - jealous that you can wear regular clothing too!)
We saw some 3d/4d images yesterday at our 16w u/s and I was a little freaked out. I think 28 weeks will be perfect and $100 is a steal!
