29 weeks

The picture is sideways but it is her face with her little hands clasped together on the bottom side of her face.

Just got home from the doctor and everything went really well. He told me that I passed my glucose test and that all my blood work came back perfectly normal. No more blood work for me! I did have to get the Rogam shot today since I am RH negative. It hurt much more than I thought it would. My arm is still hurting! The needle was 3 inches long and Tyler said she stuck it all the way in my arm...no wonder it hurt! My blood pressure went up a little this time. (I can't remember the exact numbers...damn pregnant brain!) My doctor says this is pretty normal at this stage of pregnancy.

The exciting part was getting to see Ella! Her face is getting so chubby. I love it! She is growing normally. She weighs in at 3 pounds, 2 ounces which is on the large side of average. I'm glad though because if she comes early, at least I know that weight will be on her side! I gained another 5 pounds which brings my weight up to 143 pounds. I've gained a total of 20 pounds so far! EEK!

My coworker/friend, Liz, threw Rosalyn and I a little baby shower that included the girls from work. We ate at Cheddar's and opened gifts. Ella got a lot of new clothes that are all sooo cute! I can't wait to see her in them. I am so thankful for all of my coworkers. They are so sweet and thoughtful. I truly appreciate all the gifts and I know Ella will get lots of use out of them!
