Week 24

Just entered my 3rd trimester this weekend. It was a very stressful week and weekend as our company's annual conference was on Friday. I was exhuasted by Sunday morning -- I felt like I had worked out. When I got home, I just wanted to lay in bed and read. Didn't even want to go see the new Harry Potter movie.



Here's a photo of my big belly...

I'm feeling extremely uncomfortable today. My belly feels like it's going to explode and my ass hurts like hell. I know I know... TMI but this constipation thing is really doing a number on me.

Also, during my check up yesterday, I found out that our baby is growing too big too fast. The Dr. is concern that I might have gestational diabetes so instead of waiting to take the glucose screening test in 4 weeks, I'm taking it next week. I also found out that drinking juice and too much fruits is not a good thing. The juice especially contains high sugar. I have to cut down my carb. intake as well. Can't go crazy with the rice and noodles. That's hard for Asians! Good thing I switched to Brown rice at home. Apparently you don't want your baby to be too big or you won't be able to deliver naturally.

Can't say that I'm looking forward to the 3rd trimester...3 months counting down...
