I had my 31 week appt. on Thursday and all went great. Sophie went with me this time. We waited in the waiting room for 1 hour! She was perfect. I think I was more impatient than her! By the time we finally got back there, it took about 5 minutes. My blood pressure was good, and I gained a couple more pounds - which puts me at 27 total! Yikes!! :) I'll be nursing and running it off.The heartrate was 136, which is quite a bit slower than it's been.
Sophie's face was priceless when she heard the heartbeat. It was fun having her there with me.
I have been feeling great. My only complaint is that I am getting so big and I get really tired by the evening. Yesterday was a day that I didn't get a break at all. There weren't any times when I could rest, so I was in bed by 9. My lower back starts to hurt by the evening. I am also getting a little more restless at night and not sleeping straight through - God's way of preparing us, I guess.
But other than that, :) I am cherishing every moment of this. I really do love being pregnant. I am cherishing my life with just 2 kids because I know it will be quite different with 3.
Over the past week, I have been getting very excited to meet our little baby. I can't wait to finally find out what it is!
I will go back to the doctor in 2 weeks, so I'll update again.
You look great, Myah! I think it is neat that you took Sophie with you and making her a part of the whole experience. Not too much longer... how exciting!!!
ReplyDeleteI still think boy.
Oh Myah, you look great! It won't be long until you see him/her!
ReplyDeleteYou do look great Myah. I took the kids with me everytime I had an appointment and they loved to hear the heartbeart. Everytime thier face lit up. I think it made it more real for them and helped them understand that there really is a baby in there! :)
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the heart rate went down so much it is looking like a boy and I hope it is because I have clothes already to go for you as soon as you need them!
Myah,
ReplyDeleteYOU LOOK GREAT! Stop worrying about the weight and try to stay focused on a plump and healthy baby! The pounds will shed naturally! Pregnancy is such a beautiful process-besides, I am not sure you will have time to go on runs, but you will definitly not get many moments to sit down!!! Love your size, your baby does!
