Well I really fell behind on this during the holidays and need to catch up everything. Since my last post, Jenene went to the doc and found out that she had failed her diabetes test and on top of that, was anemic. This came as a huge blow to her because throughout her first pregnancy and through this one, we had never really gotten any negative feedback. She had passed all her tests and all her levels looked fine. So this got Jenene very worried etc. On top of that, she had to go to take the three hour diabetes test which is a huge pain and start taking iron pills. The anemia was a worry because it could cause complications if she needed a transfusion from losing too much blood during delivery. The risk with the diabetes among other things is that it slows the lung development on the babies. I am happy to report that she went for and passed the three hour test so that was a huge weight off her chest. Now we are just getting to crunch time and feel like we have nothing in order. I guess a lot of it is tough to take care of because we are going to be putting the addition on so there isn't much we can do as far as a room. But we need to get the car seats fitted in the truck, we need to get some more clothes and nothing has been done at her parents house to get ready for us cause that is where we will be for the next several months. We better get started though because things are happening fast and she could go at any time now. Our next appointment is tonight so we should know more then.
