28 weeks


Good news.... I passed my glucose tolerance test! No gestational diabetes for me! I was soooo nervous I wouldn't pass! And that damn drink tasted like orange ACID! They also double checked my blood type, which is O negative. So I will need Rhogam. I see my mid-wife this Tuesday (the first of many two week visits I suppose). I'm still stable on the beta blocker and potassium supplements... thank goodness! Here is the 28 week picture (we have been slacking):
