Dax's Journal

According to my Baby Center update, Embry is nearly 4 pounds and 17 inches (or somewhere around there).

On Tuesday I go back in to repeat my glucose test. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to go to the lab this time. I am totally dreading it. I don't know why. I mean, what's more fun than twitchy phlebotomists with giant horse needles?Then on Wednesday I have another follow up appointment and I'll find out then how I did on my test.

I've already started to get my paperwork in order for my maternity leave. My last day will be somewhere between July 30th and August 13th depending on how I am doing.

I'm stunned by how quickly the baby is growing. It seems like I wake up with one belly and go to bed with an entirely different (much larger) one. I've been a little tired, I have horrible heartburn, and I think it must be at least 200 degrees in this house. Still, I feel much better than I had expected to feel at this point.

I'll post again after my appointment on Wednesday to give everyone an update.
