28 weeks!




I'm 28 weeks now! Just 12 more to go...unless, of course, little Titus decided to be gigantic like his brothers and I have to be induced a week early like I did with them. It's been a week since my gestational diabetes glucose test. I still haven't heard from my doctor which is excellent news. They only call if it comes back positive. I was really hoping NOT to hear my phone ring. :)

Titus has finally flipped himself head down instead of laying sideways. Ok, not "finally". He actually had plenty of time to do that before birth, but it was getting very uncomfortable for me so I was hoping he'd do it sooner rather than later. It took him a good 3-4 days of twists, turns and kicks to fully make the move. Not a very fun few days for me, but in a way I was still glad to get some relief fromt the usual aches and pains. Ever since those really active days I've had a lot of muscle cramps and even some shooting pains and spasms in my back. I've been in lots of pain. I went to see my chiropractor today and she was able to tell me why. During Titus' active and rowdy transition he dislocated some stuff in my low back and knocked a rib out of place. He's now sitting with his butt tucked under my rib cage so really big kicks or even constant pressure could displace the rib agian. My poor muscles don't know what to do with a crooked rib cage so it causes a lot of cramps and spasms.
