Happy 29 weeks! :) I am sorry you are getting to the point of tired and achy. Just know it is coming to an end soon. Maybe you will get lucky and she will be born on Mother's Day! I still feel great. Not tired or pooped yet so we will see how I am in a few weeks. You are going to the doctors every two weeks now. How is that going? Are you going to keep working until she is born or are you going to go on leave like a week before? 

My last day of work is April 28th. I think my back is hurting because the front of my body is taking over the back. haha My first appointment every two weeks is Wednesday, so I will let you know how that goes. My glucose test came back fine, but my platelets are just a tad low. They said they will monitor them up until delivery. I am happy for you that you still have energy. Today, I actually feel like myself as far as not craving things, but that doesn't usually last long. LOL I felt her hiccups for the first time last night. (Well, what I think was hiccups.) She is very active and I can't wait to meet her! My son got sick as school, so we are at home now waiting on our doctor's appointment at 3:00. His ear is hurting him and he sporatically cries. It breaks my heart to see him sick. Well, I am going to take care of this sick boy!  

I can't wait until Hope starts with the hiccups. Currently she kicks me in the butt the vast majority of the time. Lol! I hope your son gets to feeling better. Not as easy to hold and snuggle them when your belly is always in the way. That's great news that you passed your glucose test too. Is your husband getting nervous as it gets closer? 

I don't think so. He is very excited and he is always telling me how cute I am and my belly is. I do love having my sweet Rosie inside of me, but I definitely don't feel cute. :) 

My husband has always been attracted to pregnant women so I never have to worry about that. I however actually feel better about myself pregnant this time then ever before. My husband is always nervous because they are so fragile and completely dependent on us. Also I know me being in labor always worries him. He is always worried something could go wrong. When I had my oldest I lost so much blood that if the stuff they gave me had got me to stop I would have had a transfusion. Plus I had such bad back labor with the last two I had an epidural which scares him too
