28 Weeks

Last week was both my birthday and mother's day. Dan surprised me by flying my friend out from Arizona and we all spend the weekend together. Pretty low-key, one afternoon of mani/pedis, out to dinner the next night, and just chilling around the house.

Yesterday I had my midwife appointment:

• I took my GD test. Waiting on the results, but overall it seemed to go well. I was dreading it b/c I had to do it the normal way and drink the GD drink (fruit punch) and I've read so many terrible descriptions of the flavor and how it made people feel. I told this to my midwife before and she said I should bring a snack with me and that should help with most of it. 
• Well, I started crashing pretty good w/in an hour of taking it. Though, the taste of the drink wasn't really that bad. But the rest of day I just felt "blah", wanted to pass out, and couldn't think clearly at all!
• I made sure I could get to bed ontime and had full caf coffee this morning, so far so good.
• My midwifes encouraged me to break it off with Marggie and they gave me a few new doulas to contact. I think this is the best direction, but I haven't contacted Marggie yet. I'm ready to do it now, but Dan wants me to wait until both new doulas confirm that they are available for my due date.
