29 Weeks and 2 Days

My baby's brain is developing more around this time. Up until now the brain should have been pretty smooth but now it's starting to develop the grooves and indentations that give our brains more surface area. Also, her bone marrow should be taking over the job of producing red blood cells now. So lots of development going on for my baby! I don't feel her kicking quite as much as I used to now what I feel is a lot of sliding and maybe pushing, or stretching. I can look down throughout the day and see my belly move, which usually makes me laugh because I wonder if other people are seeing it, of course they're probably not paying attention, but I still wonder. 
Last week I was tested for Gestational Diabetes, it's normally done around 28 weeks so obviously that's what I was last week. I drank this red punch drink that was 50 mg Dextrose (basically a sugar shot), it reminded me of Hawaiian punch! Then we waited for an hour and then had my blood drawn so that my blood sugar level could be measured. I'm assuming the test came back normal because they didn't call me later that week and they had told me that "no news is good news." 
I think I've been having Braxton Hicks contractions, well actually if they are what I think they are then I've been having them for a while, I just didn't realize it. They don't last too long but basically my uterus gets really hard (you can push on it and feel it through my skin and I used to think it was the baby stretching or something), and sometimes they make me feel a little sick to my stomach like a really weak menstrual cramp I guess, and then it just passes. They are becoming more frequent, which is normal I guess, but I usually have most of them in the evenings, however this week is the first week I've had a couple, or at least I think I did, in the morning. 
Allergies have been kicking my butt since last Monday! I was trying so hard not to take any medicine for it and hoping it would just go away but it didn't and yesterday I gave in. I called the nurses and asked what is safe to take while pregnant and finally started taking Benadryl last night and then Zyrtec today. I don't know that's helping yet, I'm still pretty miserable but I know sometimes it can take a few days to work. The Benadryl is definitely helping me sleep though so that's good.  I'm just so tired I feel useless most of the time, I hope this passes soon.
