24 Weeks...6 Months!!

Yeah!!! I am now 6 months!! I went to the doctor on Monday planning to take the glucose test. I ended up not having to take the test until 28 weeks, which is great! The appointment went well. The doctor said the baby's heartbeat sounds great and he is growing perfectly on schedule. I also found out that I am carrying the baby "out instead of up", according to the doctor. She said that this accounts for my aching lower back and the fact that I look further along than I actually am. My ankles and feet are also swelling a bit, but she said this will happen because it is so hot. The heat index yesterday was about 103 degrees!!!

I have felt pretty good lately, with the exception of being extremely hot all the time. I haven't had any really unusual cravings lately. Most days I eat normally. However, there are those days when I can't seem to get full. The baby's room is coming along well, and it is all beginning to feel more real. I love to just go in the room and imagine what it will be like when little Bryce arrives. We can't wait!
