Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body.

24 weeks of Noah and glucose (yucky) test!


27th of May 2011 (25 weeks)

Hi Baby Noah!

I certainly hope you are comfortable in there! I bet it’s warm and lovely. I try all my best for it to be a safe spot for you. So, our week started off really well! We had a busy week, so it went by fast. Sunday was out last week end giving catechism, so we had a little party to celebrate the end of it. It was really good, we had really good food there!! I will miss teaching catechism next year but it`s more important for me to take good care of you and breastfeed you. It would be impossible if I gave catechism. Of course, nothing is guaranteed. We might end up not breastfeeding but still, passing almost 3 hours at church with a newborn is too hard for a new parent. Maybe when you’ll be one! We also helped Sonia out with her wedding favors on Sunday. We went to l’Essor and we packed all the favors and did all the bonbonnieres that she was going to need for the wedding. Oh, I also forgot, on Saturday we went to the CIM conference thing for society. It’s about mining and society, it was really fun! We went with Daddy (of course) but also with grandma. It was really fun to look around and get to see some real objects that are used in mines. Grandma was actually thrilled, I wasn’t sure she was going to enjoy it but she ended up liking it.  So that was fun!

Except that, our week was pretty boring. We had an exam on Wednesday and we had homework to give in on Monday, so we did that. The exam was fairly easy but to be honest with you, I couldn’t care less of school right now all I think about is you. Also, on Thursday we went to pray the rosary with Linda. It was fun to finally have some time out and to pray at a beautiful church. We didn’t get to talk much to her though because Mommy had to leave early.

Then today we had to do an awful-oh so awful- test. It was our test for gestational diabetes. Like Mommy has a family history if diabetes, she needed to get the 2 hour test done right away (instead of the 1 hour one). So, Daddy was kind enough to come with me and we went in, everything was good. The thing is that I had to fast for 12 hours. So, I didn`t eat for 12 hours, I woke up at 4 am because I was starving and when we got there, the first thing they ask you to do is to get blood work done. So fine, we did that. Then, we have to drink that cold liquid that resembles Crush (orange pop). It really wasn’t bad but Mommy wasn’t feeling well, so it didn’t help at all. I suddenly started feeling really bad and I knew it had to come out. It was so spontaneous though…I barely had time to realize that I was going to throw up. So, the test was over. Once you throw up you need to restart. We need to rebook another appointment to do that –oh how awful- test.

The rest of the day was pretty fun though. Daddy and I napped for a LONG time when we got home and we went shopping for maternity clothes. Mommy can’t really fit in her shirts anymore…So we got some cute shirts and some cute jeans…We summed the day up by eating a White Magnum. I’ve been pretty good with those. One a week!

That’s about it for now Little Noah! We’ll get to see you in 3D/4D on june 18th!!! So excited!
Mommy and Daddy love you a lot, take care of yourself in there!!
Keep baking!!!!!
