Week 28 Doctor's Appointment
Another week, another doctor's appointment. This time I went in to take the glucose test which checks for diabetes. I had to drink this sugar water concoction one hour prior to my appointment to check how my body breaks down sugar. It was a quick appointment with a couple of other tests like an HIV test (optional) and a hemoglobin test. It was at this appointment where the nurses gave me all the information and forms to sign off for hospital pre-registration, pediatrician selection, circumcision (boys only of course), and epidural request. Time to tour the hospital!

How do the doctors know that babies can smell something when they are 7 months old? And can you sense his reactions to the foods that you eat? Aren't you tempted to eat really spicy Thai peppers just to see what he does?
I wonder if the baby can actually smell the scents or if they react off of my reactions to scents and taste. We should try the experiment. I just had a spicy dish from Pei Wei the other night and he was kickin' up a storm. We should give him the Thai Pepper test. Dried or fresh?
