I am a horrible blogger. I admit it. I promised last time that I would keep you guys updated on the most recent and latest and greatest with this pregnancy, and I have failed. Miserably.
After getting out of the hospital in Orange City at 27 weeks pregnant, I was put on an antibiotic for 10 days, and the bladder infection went away. I had a check up at 28 weeks in Sioux Falls and an ultrasound revealed nothing to be out of the ordinary. We did discover that baby was in the breech position at this point, but it wasn't a big deal.
A few days after seeing my main doctor in Sioux Falls I boarded an airplane to Orlando, Florida where I spent an entire WEEK on vacation with Brad's whole family. While we were in Florida I flipped over the 29 week card, little did I realize that the next 11 weeks were going to be the longest 11 weeks of my life!
While in Florida, I managed to "meet" Pooh and Tigger at Disney! Needless to say, Baby Girl is spoiled with all of the Pooh and Tigger that will be in her life when she arrives! :)
A few days after I got back from Florida, we flipped yet another week off of the Calendar and had officially hit 30 weeks! We had another Dr. appointment this week, but did not get an ultrasound this time. Although there was no ultrasound, the heart beat still was strong and steady, and the Dr. said baby had finally flipped and was now head down. I was so uncomfortable in Florida one night, I determined that was quite possibly when she had flipped because I was sooooo stretched out and uncomfortable!
This past week we hit the 32 week mark, and once again, headed off to the Dr in Sioux Falls. We did have an ultrasound this week again, and baby girl once again is breech. The Dr said he won't get concerned about this until 36ish weeks, then we will discuss turning the baby as I get closer to "the day". The heart rate was good on Wednesday and we are estimated to be 3 lbs 13 oz, which is the 38th percentile for weight. I am perfectly ok with baby being this little! :) The Dr. said baby's weights usually double in the last 8 weeks... which puts us just a little bit under 8 lbs (eek)... but I'm shooting for 6 1/2! :)
Today Brad and I took our maternity photos for baby girl 2! They turned out pretty cute if you ask me! :) I had a lot of fun, even though Brad is a total baby when it comes to pictures or anything to do with a camera!
We go in to the Dr again in a week and a half for just another regular check up and no ultrasound. Every day that passes is one day closer to meeting this little tyke and I can't wait! I didn't realize that the end of pregnancy was SO uncomfortable.... I hadn't hit this stage yet with Paige, so this is all 100% new even though its not my "first run in the game."
Unfortunately.... the photo application of this blog isn't working for me at the moment... so we're going to have to skip out on the photos for today. If you are really interested, check out my facebook page! Everything as of late has been uploaded there!
I'm so glad to hear everything is going well! I laugh when I hear you talk about being uncomfortable. I can definitely relate! I recall a few times when I was trying to lecture that I thought I wouldn't make it through the class period. :)
