28 weeks

Finally in the third trimester! Some of my prego books say the third trimester starts as early as the 25th week - most agree that by 28 weeks I'm definitely in the third trimester. Crazy, isn't it? Time flies... Little baby boy Brummer probably weighs somewhere around 2-2.5 pounds and is 15 inches long now. I had my 28 week appointment on Friday, and I had my glucola test and Rhogam (sp?) shot that day. Hopefully my glucola test will have a good result, although I would understand if my blood sugar was high because I did drink a Decaf Skinny Mocha Frappe right before my appointment. I asked the barista if he could make it sugar free and he said no... At least I asked, right? :) Just about every time I go to the hospital for my appointment, I stop at the Java House for a treat - it's kind of my celebration for making it to the next milestone of this pregnancy! So why break tradition just for a glucola test??? :) I had a different nurse at this last appointment, and she lectured me about having the frappe right before the glucose test - if they cared about what I ate or drank before the test, they should tell me to fast for a couple hours! She was just plain grumpy though - I'm glad that I usually have Tuesday morning appointments because my experience with those nurses so far has only been good.
Well, I really need to tidy up the house a bit and get some laundry done. Hope you all have a good week!
