We are up to a Lemon

This week, my pregnancy app says baby Klober is the size of a lemon. It's strange that something that big can be in your belly and you can't feel it yet. I know it will come, it's just weird to me. Here are belly pics so far for months 1, 2, and 3.

 Month 1 (more of a "before" shot)

Month 2 

Month 3

Month 2 was a bad picture- we took like 3 and Kyle said, "You sure are picky with these belly pics." Well, if you could get my actual belly in it instead of the kitchen table...He did better month 3 :)

I had a tiny scare this morning at work. About 8:45 I felt a little light-headed. I ate a handful of some nuts I had by my desk, and got really clammy. I took that child back and went to the nurse and had her check my blood sugar. It was 37. That's the lowest it's been, to my knowledge. She had me stay in there and eat peanut butter and drink some juice. 20 minutes later it was up to 47. Still low but I felt a ton better. I ate a few grapes and went back an hour later and it was 85. I called my doctor to just see if I needed to do anything and if she thought the baby was ok. The nurse called back and told me that can be normal because your body is working super hard for both you and baby. She just said to make sure and eat something protein-rich every 2 hours. I was eating about 6 times a day but I guess that wasn't enough for the little stinker. :) Hopefully I will not have to go through that again. It was not fun. Good news is, as of Saturday, I am in my second trimester!
