Had my OB appt this morning. I've only gained 1 pound in the last 2 weeks!!! Hooray!!! I knew it was those damn malts :P I passed my glucose test too. They want you to be under 140 and I was at 84!! I think that explains why I get the shakes and feel light headed if I don't eat every couple of hours even when I'm not pregnant. I'm not sure how that all works though. Asked about allergy meds and she said Claritin or the new OTC Zyrtec so I picked up some of the Zyrtec on my way home. It seems to be helping much better than the Benadryl and I don't feel drowsy. Hooray! When I got home I picked up Jack and took him to get his hair cut. He had no interest in sitting on the booster. He sat in my lap though and watched clips of Yo Gabba Gabba and Big Big World on the camera and did really well. He looks pretty damn cute now and I think we got a better cut than we've gotten at the barber:

This is what I get when I ask for a "nice face" :P

How your baby's growing:

Your baby's about 15.7 inches long now, and she weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds her, but that volume will decrease as she gets bigger and takes up more room in your uterus. Her eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after she's born, she'll keep her eyes closed for a good part of the day. When she does open them, she'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means she can only make out objects a few inches from her face.
