What's baby up to? Ella Paityn is weighing in over 5 pounds at this point....maybe even over 6. We may get updated measurements at our next appointment on Wednesday! At this point, most of her development is complete and she is just putting on the pounds. Please be kind, little girl :-)
BPP Appointment: Ella Paityn did a great job this week and scored all 8 points within the first 5-10 minutes of our ultrasound. You should have seen her "breathing" away....that little diaphragm pumping up and down is such a sweet sight. Our new sonographer, Emily, also broke out the 3D ultrasound again! Unfortunately, this isn't the most opportune time to be doing one of those because she is so cramped in there. We weren't able to get any really good pictures or views because EP had her hands all up in her face, as usual!
Total weight gain: 20 pounds :-(
Maternity clothes? Yes
Symptoms: Finger/toe/knee pain (midwife called it pregnancy arthritis), congestion, and just general discomfort moving around or finding a good sitting position
Sleep: Not too bad :-)
Food cravings: None!
Food aversions: Nope :-)
Movement? Still head down and moving around often
Miss anything? Being able to get up and down comfortably without groaning, being able to legitimately hug Jacob (it just seems weird and middle-schoolish now) because there is a large bump getting in the way
Best moment of the week: A surprise baby shower at school! My sweet friends outdid themselves with delicious food and sweet gifts. A good doctor's appointment with maternity pictures (will blog soon).
Looking forward to: Getting the nursery finished and checking off a ton of stuff on to-do lists. We are also going on a shopping spree on Friday to get everything that we still need! Can't wait :-)
