I found out last week i have gestational diabetes. I had to attend a class where they taught me how to keep my blood sugar low and how to prick my finger. I usually have to lay down in the Dr.'s office when they prick my finger - i get light headed - so i wasn't looking forward to this. It wasn't so bad though - not near as bad as in the Dr's office. Now I'm having to really watch my carbs and add in more protein to not get hungry and I'm pricking my finger 4 times a day. I'm motivated though because i don't want to have to take insulin nor do i want my baby to grow too large and have complications from that.
I went in for my 31 wk appt on Friday. The Dr. told me all looked good. He told me that she was breech and not to worry about it - they usually turn around. Also I've been struggling with back pain this past week and tiredness and generally not feeling as well.
I will look forward to our kitchen project and nursery project being done so i can clean up while i still have the energy.

Nursery Work
Tom and my friend Melanie painted the nursery this weekend. (it's yellow) I am pleased with the color and progress. Tom is in the middle of painting the baseboards and trim a white color. We're making headway in getting the nursery completed. Our goal is to have it all done by end of September.
Kitchen getting closer
Progress has been made on the kitchen. We now have new granite countertops and undermount sink and the cabinets have been primed.
