I'm 32 weeks today!! I had another OB appt and today was the day for the 32 week ultrasound. The purpose of this one is to put the baby on a growth curve to estimate size at delivery. She was very active during the ultrasound kicking all around so much so the US tech could feel it as she was doing the scan. Everything looked perfect---as Dr. Fenoughty said, "this baby couldn't be more perfect". She's measuring right on target, actually 3 days ahead and estimated weight today is 4 lbs, 4oz. and predicted to be about 7 lb,8oz at birth. We also got some really good 3D pictures and video and she was very cooperative. It's hard to tell who she'll look like, but seems to be a little more pudgy than Braden was at 32 weeks. Braden was excited to see the pictures of his baby sister and seems to be very aware of what's gong on---just not the fact that this one will take a lot of Mommy's attention and cry a lot. We'll figure that out as we go. :) We also talked about scheduling my C-section today and as long as everything progresses well without problems or early labor, it's planned for Monday, July 11th at 9am. Getting closer and closer. . . . I'm excited, but also a little nervous about the change from 1 to 2 kids. Eeek. How will I manage both? Will Braden be obnoxiously jealous? And also the recovery from a C-section, while managing both kids. Oh boy. Any and all help would be appreciated, I'm sure! We don't have her room together yet. We still have much to do! We're hoping to get it painted next weekend, get a new dresser and finally start putting things together. As long as it's ready before she gets here, right? :)
Overall I'm continuing to feel good. Just getting bigger by the day. And managing Braden is becoming more challenging. I totally fell on my behind the other day as I was squatting to help Braden get undressed- if that tells you anything. :)
This summer will be an adventure!!!
