I went to the doctor today and was thrilled to hear that my visits will now be every 2 weeks.....rather than every 4 weeks! That means we are heading into the home stretch people!! :)
I jumped on the scale expecting to have grown a whole 10 pounds....but no...only 1 pound this time. That makes 15 pounds total so far. The doctor said that it was not a big deal as long as I was gaining and not losing. Everything seems to be growing right on schedule otherwise. She mentioned that not at the next appointment, but at the following one (37 weeks and full term) they will begin internal exams to check on the progress of the baby and his final descent. How crazy is it to think I will start counting the MINUTES until Dominic's arrival in just 4 short weeks?
I am 2 baby showers down with 2 more on the way this weekend. I am headed to Bristol Friday to get ready. Everyone has been so incredibly generous, I don't think we will have to buy anything on our own. It is so wonderful to have such support from our family and friends.
I have really been feeling the belly lately....it feels huge and heavy these days. I have to sleep with a pillow under it and it might be causing a slight waddle. It is hard to believe that it still has a lot of growing to do in the next few weeks.
