30 weeks!

We are 30 weeks today! (7.5 months) I'm feeling the effects of the last trimester I tell ya, I am tired all the time and have an endless desire to eat....it's almost time just 10 weeks to go. For the past week or so I have been having some heart palpations so my OB doctor recommended I see a cardiologist so we have an appointment with him on Monday and are hoping it's nothing major and just pregnancy related. And we have our OB doctor's appointment on Tuesday and lets hope he flips soon so we don't have to have a c/s. We are getting maternity pictures done on Monday as well and our baby shower is a week from today so we have a busy week ahead of us. We are expecting a lot of friends and family and I am so happy. We are leaving for KY on Thursday!

Doctor's appointment.

So today went well, had my gestational diabetes test and will await the results. Gained some more weight so that is good total 17lbs now (not thrilled about that with 80 days to go but oh well). From here on out we see Dr. Lowe every other week. It's getting close!

Bedding!

We got his bedding in the mail today from Aunt Carol and cousins Jamie and Lauren! I was so excited I had to wash it and put it on his bed. It's so cute!

4D Video!

3D Ultrasound!!

3D Ultrasound!!

What an amazing experience! It was so neat to see his face and see him smile and move. Very touching! We did find out that he is breech! Bad boy already, hopefully he will turn! He is measuring 2lb 7oz which is great for his size. So far it looks like he has his daddy's lips and my nose but we'll see.

27 weeks!

So I am 27 weeks today and feeling very large....just feels like I have really increased in size here in the past week or so. Can't shave my legs like I used to and getting off the couch and climbing over Abby is getting a little harder. LOL! We had a dinner party with Marcus' company last night at PF Changs it was great. We got our first official baby gifts! It was fun and nice to see Marcus' co-workers. There was about 22 of us. The food was great as always and the company even better.

Contractions!

So for the past few days I've been having some trouble with contractions.....it's not pre-term labor but it can turn into that so I have tried my hardest to drink lots of water and relax. Dr. Lowe thinks it's related to my scar tissue from my surgeries and to stay hydrated and rest so that is what I am doing. I will be 27 weeks on Saturday (one week shy of my 3rd trimester) and I only have 13 more to go if I make it to 36 I'll be happy. I have a gut feeling he will be early....my prediction he will be here by July 28th. Just a feeling, but then again I thought we were having a girl so ya know how off I am. Hell or high water he will be here by the August 4th....even if that means an induction. We are having a3D/ 4D ultrasound on Monday which I am excited about our last one wasn't impressive. Hopefully he will let us get some better pictures....he tends to be very active and moves a lot so they have trouble getting good pictures. Stubborn like me already! Marcus' company is also throwing us a baby shower tomorrow which will be neat, nothing fancy just a group of about 18 going out to eat at PF Chang's (my favorite restaurant lately). And my maternity pictures are schedules for June 1st, I am hoping for some outside so that should be interesting. No bare belly shots for me I am not that brave. Fun times....can't wait to met him.....all in good timing that is. :)
