We had our doc apt last Thursday. Everything went great. The doc said my weight is on track, which is great! I've gained 29 pounds so far, which is a lot to me. But my doc said that was an ideal weight gain. I've got 3 more weeks, so hopefully I don't blow up like a blowfish in the next few weeks! The baby measured right where he should be and is in the correct placement for labor. The doctor guessed that he will be around 7 pounds when he decides to come out.
We didn't have to end up staying at the hospital that night after all. The weather wasn't that bad like they had expected. Our doctor lives in the same housing area as us. He said if for some reason I did start to go into labor or have any problems he would just swim to our place if the area did end up flooding :)
So we only have 3 more weeks left. I'm hoping and praying he comes sooner. I've actually made a bet with one of our friends that the Baby is coming before the end of this month. I'm thinking the 28th or 29th is a good day:) Let's hope the baby agrees! It's not that I don't enjoy being pregnant. Sure I don't mind my body being taken over.....having an over sized gut in the way, not being able to eat and drink certain foods, having these lovely little cramps during the day, getting kicked at various times, especially when I'm playing Guitar Hero and I'm trying to win!Oh yeah, let me not forget the almost hourly nightly trips to the bathroom. But other than that, it has been great. I think my body looks pretty good for being almost 9 months pregnant. My weight gain has all gone to my belly. My face hasn't blown up and I don't look like a fat cow like I thought I would. I didn't have to wear much maternity clothes, except pants. Honestly, I can't complain about being pregnant. I am growing a little human being that belongs to Aaron and I. This is our little guy that we created.
Hopefully we will be able to meet him soon!
