Weight: 163 pounds
Baby Size: Papaya
I went to the doctor today. I gained 7 pounds this month! My appetite has definitely been strong lately and I have been eating well. I have gained 12 pounds total and my doc says that is good. I can't believe I am 6 months pregnant already. I did the glucose tolerance test this morning - the orange drink was hard to drink in just 5 minutes. I didn't like the taste at all - flat orange soda with too much sugar - no good! The last couple of weeks my favorite snack has been a cinnamon roll. That could have something to do with gaining 7 pounds!
All in all, Dr. Williams said my growth is right on track. The baby's heart rate was 146 this time. The nurse said the baby was probably inactive (sleeping) and not moving. I had to take the morning off from work because of the appointment. It was very nice to only teach half a day since my kiddos have been rowdy.
The baby woke me up twice this week kicking in the night. Also he/she has kicked my bladder and made me have to hurry to the restroom.
Every night Hector lays in bed with his hand on my belly to feel the baby move and kick = )
