32 Weeks!

I am 32 weeks pregnant with Baby Walker #2!!  I'm still feeling good, but a bit more tired than previously.  Something new that is going on during this pregnancy that I did not experience when I was pregnant with Jude is Gestational Diabetes- I was diagnosed with it in my 29th week of pregnancy and have been learning what I can and can not eat and testing my blood glucose levels multiple times a day.  The good thing about Gestational Diabetes is that it will go away once the baby is born!  Following the diabetic diet is definitely a challenge, but it's getting easier as each day passes and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel that it will go away in a matter of weeks.  Another difference in this pregnancy as compared to my pregnancy with Jude is that when I was pregnant with Jude I developed Preeclampsia and so far I have shown no signs of that during this pregnancy!  Because I had a C-Section with Jude, I will be following that same route with Baby Walker #2 as well and am scheduled to do so on November 16th as long as this little one is able to stay put until then.  We are thrilled that the same doctor who delivered Jude will also be delivering Baby Walker #2 as long as everything goes as planned.  Here's a picture of me today, at 32 weeks pregnant:

For comparison sake, here's a picture of me back in April 2010 when I was 32 weeks pregnant with Jude:

So at this point, the countdown is on!  We've got 7 more weeks to go (at most) before our little girl makes her debut into our family and we've still got a lot to do before then.  I know what we'll be doing this weekend!  Ha Ha!
