Sweetpea has been moving around quite a bit; it has been no problem feeling 10 movements in a two hour period during her active times (usually, she does her 10 in less than 10 min). Some movements feel so strange sometimes, and at times, I would feel like I'm being stretched out when I feel her on two ends of my belly. She's usually up and moving pretty late in the evening; I hope she doesn't go to bed too too late when she's out. Other than that, one of the unpleasant symptoms I sometimes get is acid reflux. Overall, the second trimester has been good, and we're now at the start of our third and last trimester. We've started having OB appointments every two weeks now, and our first labor and birth class (one out of 5) starts this upcoming Wednesday. There's so much to do before the baby comes. Daddy has been busy with doing house renovations (tiling our master bath...so strange most are carpeted in this area). He's done a great job with painting and doing the chair rail and molding in the baby room; we just need to decorate and add the finishing touches to the baby room and tidy up the house (get carpets professionally cleaned and everything put in place) before the baby comes. I know, I know... people say it'll get very messy again once you have children due to the stuff you accumulate, but at least we'll feel better that we tried :)

Test Results
The doctor's office called this morning with the results from the 2nd glucola test, and I'm happy to report that it is confirmed that Sweetpea and I do not have gestational diabetes. I was so thrilled to hear the news; we hadn't expected to hear back so soon since the test lab said that my doctor's office would get the result sometime today but that it usually takes offices a couple days to process/analyze the results and inform patients... so, when they called, I didn't know what to expect, that perhaps it may not be so positive... Anyhow, I'm so thankful that we are right on track with our health; thank you all for your prayers! Now, we can sail along through the rest of the pregnancy.

I'm so glad that the test results came back with good news!
It was great seeing you 3 a few weeks ago. I can't believe you are already in your third trimester!!!
I'm glad to hear that the test results came back negative; it was a scare for me too when I had to do the four hour test. Enjoy your last trimester!
