Week 34 and a half

Er, whoops! I've lost my preggo diary again. Never mind! So the injections are going well - I hardly feel them any more & haven't had a blood reading over the target in days. It's my last week at work & I'm still struggling to get this last assignment done for uni. How boring! There's like, a million things I'd rather be doing (like writing on here). I just had it pointed out that my last day is Friday the 13th. Cool! Gee it'd be good if Rex came early. I don't really think it will though. I have a physio appointment tomorrow & then an ultrasound next week. I'm quite pleased that I'll get to see the little possum on the screen again before I see it in real life. It's really just to check that it's not getting too fat around the belly. I've also made an appointment for a quote for the kitchen floor. Once that's in we can put the stove back & have an actual kitchen again. Awesome! I also inquired about a quote for a tree surgeon & a gutter clean out so hopefully they'll call me back soon. We have soooo many leaves piling up around our house it's quite ridiculous. No wonder we get so many spiders! Bring on Friday.

Week 34

Insulin shots started last night; the Gestational Diabetes diet wasn't doing what they'd hoped it would by itself. So as a supplement to the diet, I also need the shots twice a day. I'm a bit scared of needles so Moda's very generously offered to give them to me. 6 weeks times 7 days, times twice a day equals 84 injections. If the bub comes on time. Awesome. Anyway, I have a family wedding in Sydney next weekend and I have borrowed a lovely dress for it. I hope they don't mind too much if I don't stay for the whole thing. These weddings tend to go on until like, one in the morning and I just can't do it. I turn into a zombie by about 9pm.. See how we go.
