This morning we had our latest and greatest appointment with our perinatologist. The last time we saw him was 6 weeks ago and our nugget's growth was in the 53rd percentile. Today, for the first time, she refused to cooperate. To be fair, it was her mid morning calm time. She placed her hands over [...]

27 Weeks – GD Testing
The joy of hitting 27 weeks (or around there for some) in a pregnancy is the lovely gestational diabetes test. If you don't know exactly what this is about then I can tell you it is where you drink an orange drink and more of you will nod your head in understanding. If you still [...]
