Today kind of sucked. I've been cramping all week on and off, so I ended up going to Labor & Delivery at the hospital I'll be delivering at in September. It was kind of freaky to pass by the birthing rooms knowing I'll be in one in 3 months or less! (In case you're wondering, they're pretty small but they do have tvs!) So, long story short, I'm having minor contractions (10 - 20 seconds long each) along with a soft cervix (which apparently isn't the best thing at 27 weeks) but they have no clue why and everything else looks good. No bed rest (thank God...can't afford it), but I will have to monitor my mini-contractions and try to take it a little easier. (I used a lot of parentheses in this paragraph.)
Now for the good news....ultrasound pictures! Yay! As if you didn't get enough last time...lol. I think these are better. He's moving right along....his big head is measuring almost 30 weeks, and the rest of him is pretty much right on the money. My new EDD is 9/17/09...yikes! But, I think the Dr. is still going with the original date from way back when of 9/22/09. We shall see. I know sometimes it's hard to know what you're looking at with these pics, but I think they're pretty clear. He was asleep, curled up in this weird, contortionist-style little ball....in a couple of pics his foot is like over his head....the crazy baby! I got to see him open his little eyes a bit (so cute and cool) and open and close his mouth a few times. It's all very amazing. Okay, pics!
I could've fixed the spacing a bit, but didn't feel like it. Told you I'm lazy! Oh, and if you can't tell that the second picture is a foot, I really don't know how to help you. :) It was 5 cm long! It looks like he's got mommy's long toes..lol....and he sure doesn't seem to need any more fat on his lips or cheeks! :)
I'm tired.....hope you enjoyed the pics, and happy belated father's day, any fathers that read this! Love you all.

He's so beautiful and lippy, lol. I love it. I hope the ugly old contractions go away and wait their turn. Keep healthy and keep the pics coming! I'd blog but I'm even lazier than you, I guess, lol.
ReplyDeleteHey! You should blog! It's fun and picturey and people leave comments. I hope you're at least taking belly pics!
ReplyDeleteWhat a good looking baby you've got there! I had braxton hicks contractions from 17 weeks on. They said that it made me stronger when the real time came. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love the new pregnant profile picture with you and Dimas. Such a cute little family!
