updates

at my ultrasound appt on Thursday baby did not cooperate so got no new pics again. she was not wanting to show herself and kept blocking her face with her hands. such a me thing tbh. she was practicing her breath tho and the tech said usually that’s the hardest thing to get them to do but she was only doing that. 

the OB wasn’t there again and still hadn’t updated my chart to show me results of the ultrasound or let me know about insulin or anything yet 🙄 luckily my fasting numbers are going down. but i had read it can be cuz placenta is starting to fail. i also had some high blood pressure problems and wanted to see what they say but still haven’t heard back??? i guess they’ll call and or update my chart on Monday. 

my birthday was the same day as my ultrasound appt so i opened bday gifts from bf before leaving for the appt. he got me my pink microwave and my pink toaster. they look so cute and kinda look like toys. barbie stuff. slowly but surely i’m bullying my way into redecorating places in the house. 

yesterday i had my NST test appt again and once again my baby is doing really well and the nurse was like “i love when you come in your baby does beautifully”. she told me a lot of other women that come in are there for like an hour or more cuz their babies aren’t cooperating. i have 1 more appt each so 3 more appts next week until they are scheduled to induce me on Monday. it’s happening. it’s getting extremely real now. i will have a baby and my life is gonna be forever changed in 9 days. (unless they call monday to move it earlier next week) but so far it looks like im still scheduled for the 29th. still need help packing my hospital bag

yesterday we carried on with my bday and went to breakfast after my appt. we went to this small cafe called 3 lil birds. i got breakfast tacos. then we went to look and call around shelters for guinea pigs. ended up at a pet store where i didn’t wanna go really but one of the pet stores had like 7 baby guinea pigs, all female. so i picked one out yesterday. it was a toss up between this fuzzy looking one that looked like she just woke up or this cute little soft light brown and white one. the fuzzy one i liked cuz it was so funny looking but i wasn’t sure if its ear was bleeding or it had something wrong with its feet. i’m sure it was fine but after dealing with the sickness and death of my latest pig i didn’t wanna go thru any of that again. so we got my guinea pig and brought her home. i blocked off the cage in half for them to introduce slowly. so far she’s scared and wouldn’t come out of hiding in the box i left in her side. i took it out last night to force her to move more into her home more. Poppy noticed her and they were smelling each other. then she got aggressive about trying to get to the baby ones side. biting the cage trying to get there. eventually she got over and i had to separate them again as she was chasing the other the baby one and scaring her. so bf zip tied the middle together and Poppy still be trying to get to the other side. today i’m going to allow them to be together fully and let them do their pig dominance thing cuz im sure it’ll go on. according to reddit they say you’re supposed to allow it even if they chase and stuff. as long as there is no bloodshed it’s safe and natural. then i will block them off again after. my concern is that the baby one is BABY like small af. Poppy is a big ass 1.5 year old bitch so i need to be careful. once they get used to each other and everything im glad they’ll both have each others company. 

we went to my fave Crawdaddys for my bday dinner and i got the healthiest meal i could. i didn’t cave in and get the jambalaya pasta like i usually do. still trying to eat right for baby. just 9 more days and i am free of this gestational diabetes. when she is out im ordering munchkins and mcdonald’s breakfast. i made my own bday cake cuz i wanted to try this keto bday cake which was okay. 

my bf always makes fun of me cuz i look normal from the back until i turn around. my stomach is big and i am so done with it
