pregnancy

I forgot to write about my last appointment results. I passed the glucose tolerance test!!!!!! yay!!! however, my blood pressure was a little high. i am hoping it has something to do with the fact that i was feeling a little anxious at that appointment. it wasn't super high, but definitely higher than my usual. this is an early sign of preeclampsia. i dont have any other signs (extreme swelling, super high bp, etc). he told me to watch for more signs and that i was probably fine. however, since i am a nurse, i know the worst case scenario and might have freaked out a little bit. I took my blood pressure at work like 5 times yesterday. The longer I sat and chilled out, it did get lower, so I feel a little better. other pregnancy news: Grace kicks and moves ALLLL the time and I love it. She is not to the point that it wakes me up at night or hurts my ribs yet, so i still love it. I love to watch my stomach move all over the place and bulge out randomly. I just wish she wasn't so stubborn and would do it when other people are watching or feeling. oh well. that's really all i have for now!
