I had my 30 week appointment today. I got the hospital registration packet to fill out and I got the number to call if I think I’m in labor! WOW-it’s getting close! My appointments will now happen every 2 weeks and I get an ultrasound in 4 weeks to check her position, the amniotic fluid, and see how big she is. Once I hit 36 weeks, I’ll start going in once a week.
She’s in there kicking away right now saying “Hi” to all her loved ones. We’re getting very excited for her arrival. I don’t quite feel ready yet but give me a few weeks and I’m sure I’ll want to get this baby out!
She had a huge growth spurt over the last week and I really seemed to pop. My belly is BIG now and I get asked multiple times a day when I’m due, followed by “that’s not very long, now is it?” or some variation. Thanks for reminding me peeps!
She’s quite the wiggle worm and has found Mommy’s ribs! Wow that girl can kick and she’s got rhythm! On multiple occasions she’s kicked to the beat of music. The first time I thought it was a coincidence but now it’s happened so many times that I’m convinced that she’s got the music in her! 😉
Here’s a picture of my 30 week belly. As you’ll be able to see in the picture, my hair has decided that it’s straight. I try to do it curly and it turns out straight-WEIRD.
