35 weeks tomorrow, 35 days to go!

No matter how many ultrasounds I've had, I just haven't gotten tired of seeing this baby! Rob and I went to her September ultrasound yesterday. The little Peanut is now estimated to weigh 5lbs 6ozs, and I feel those pounds when I try to waddle around... I mean walk around.

She has decided that it's better to be head down (Mom agrees!) so hopefully the acrobatics will begin to slow as she runs out of space. Her Non-Stress Test was wonderful, her heart rate responds exactly as it should and she is still pretty active for a 5lber.

We'll be seeing the doctor every week now, and having a Non-Stress Test weekly as well. All things considered, we've been pretty blessed so far.

Look out world, the Peanut is coming!

Baby Acrobatics

Peanut and I had our second Non-Stress Test today and all went really well. Her heart rate response to movement was just as it should be! Next week she'll get measured and weighed again.

We also found out today that our little girl has quite the head of hair! This halo of white fluff was all around her head. My sister and I were born with a full head of jet black hair. It was so long that the nurses were able to put little bows in it. We didn't lose it, it just kinda kept on growing. So we'll see if the little one takes after her Mom and Auntie.

Peanut also decided that head down was no fun, there is no way to kick Mom's bladder that way. So she decided to flip again and we're now feet first once more. No worries, they said she has plenty of fluid and time to  move back to head down. Might as well play while you can!
