Weekly Check-up
Just returned from my weekly 20 minute appointment. My blood pressure is good and the baby’s heart rate is also good – according the the nurse.
When the doctor came in, she measured my belly and felt my stomach to locate the baby. The baby is positioned head-down (which is good, and it will be very unlikely for her to turn now). She is getting ready to come! The doctor also told me not to expect a small baby! She said, “Don’t expect a 7 pound baby to just come popping out!” Looks like I will have a bigger baby to deal with. Both my sister and I were big babbies, so this isn’t much of a surprise.
16 days until due date… I am pretty ready for her to come. Up until this last week, the house has been clean and prepared. With a broken vacumm and lots of tutoringthis week (to make some extra $$$), I have fallen behind on my house chores! Laundry, dishes, and a messy living room have taken over. I need to get this taken care of before Lily shows up!
