5/4/09 - Back to the OB today. Thomas was able to go with me this time and that is always great! Overall we had a good visit and everything looks good. I am measuring exactly where I should be for this time in my pregnancy. My sugar levels are starting to creep up particularly at night. Dr. Taft (I just love him) decided to leave me on my oral medication for diabetes but has added a shot of insulin at night with my dinner. Thomas is looking forward to sticking me with that needle every night - LOL. Dr. Taft said it is too early to tell but right now I am not having any other issue that would lead him to believe that Toby will appear early. I told him Toby would probably come late to make up for the time that Hunter came early. He did say that babies whose mothers are diabetic tend to have lungs that don't develop as rapidly as those who don't. We really need to pray for Toby's lungs. We go back to see Dr. Haskins on May 15th. Then will probably start weekly visits by 5/29/09.
Hunter got his new bed last week - Thank you MawMaw and PawPaw! He loves it. I still haven't gotten the room completely moved around and the crib put back together but things are starting to come together.
Our poor little ball team is still struggling but they do have a couple of checks in the W column. Hunter loves to play baseball! We only have 2 or 3 more weeks left in the season. I sure hope we can get the team fired back up so that we can get a couple more W's.
Thomas had another long week at work last week but it looks like things are going to be better this week. That push at the end of the month is about to kill them all. Hopefully he will get a breather before the hours start stacking up again. God Bless him for making the commitment to go in at 2:30 AM so that he can get off by 2:30 PM in time to pick Hunter up from school. He works so had and I am thankful for him everyday!
