Doctor's Appointment

37 weeks...On Wednesday I woke up and looked at myself in the mirror and thought the belly looked a little different. I could also breath easier. We think the baby has dropped some or changed positions. It feels weird to have a different belly!!

Today we had another doctor's appointment. My blood pressure is still doing great. This time I had gained a total of 21 pounds. That ice cream is catching up to me!! I am measuring at 38 weeks and the baby's heart rate was 136 bpm. They checked me and said that the baby's head has not engaged yet. This is good because it means we are a little ways away from being ready to deliver. I know it sounds strange, but we want it to last three more weeks so Mommy doesn't have to go back to work before the end of the year! Our next appointment is Tuesday, March 25th. We will see the doctor and have a sonogram. They will tell us an estimate of how big they think the baby is going to be. I can't wait to see the sonogram this time!!!
