Belly and Blood Test Results

I am definitely taking up more space than I used to. I've hit myself in the belly more than once in the last few weeks when I've been opening doors and such--just standing too close. On Saturday, I tried to slip between a couple of people to reach my vests and discovered I didn't fit without them moving. At the playground on Sunday, there were a couple of guys practicing soccer. The ball went the wrong direction and came toward me. I stepped out of the way...or so I thought until the ball hit me in the belly. (The ball had already bounced off the ground a couple of times and brushed someone else's back before it got to me, so it wasn't a hard hit at all.)

This morning, I got a call from the midwives' office. They got back the blood results from the glucose tolerance test last week. My blood sugar levels are fine, but it showed that I'm borderline anemic, so they are recommending an over-the-counter iron supplement in addition to the multi-vitamin I've been taking (or trying to take). I'd noticed a couple times in the last week or two that I was more winded than normal after climbing the stairs to accounting on the top floor. Maybe that was why. But I haven't particularly noticed a problem when clogging, so maybe not.
