32 Week Appointment

Yesterday was our 32 week appointment. I was a bit nervous since we hadn't been in 6 weeks....A lot can happen in a short amount of time when you're pregnant! This appointment was special because Jason got to come as well as Delaney and Garrett! The appointment started off at the scale...I joked with my nurse, "now remember it's been 6 weeks!!!" I had gained 11 pounds, so all together this pregnancy I've gained 29. Not to bad. I realize I still have 8 weeks to go, but I'm happy where I'm at!
Next it was time for my BP check. It came back GREAT! Whew! What a releif!
Next it was time for my H1N1 vaccine. It hurt like a son of a gun but I'm protecting myself as well as my unborn baby! =) Go me!
Finally it was time for my doctor to come in. She measured my uterus and and said I was between 31 and 32cm. I was so excited I wanted to hug her!!! This means that as I sit right now I'm right where I'm supposed to be! I have a "normal" sized baby inside me...not an elephant!!! She was quick to remind me that she'll want to do a 36 week ultrasound just to make sure baby is "normal sized" since I typically have monster babies! Either way that didn't burst my bubble that I was doing everything right this time! I am working out, watching what I eat and just taking good care of myself!
Lastly we ALL got to hear the heartbeat. It was at 150. So I jokingly said "it's a boy!" Obviously not knowing! But I usually go off of the beats per minute!
All in all it was a great appointment and I cannot wait to go back in 2 weeks for our 34 week appointment!!! =)

Hope all is well in your worlds!

Don't you see Dr. Piquard? I'm glad everything is going well. I also think it's a boy, however I think Candie is having another girl!

Piquard ROCKS! I would have 20 babies with her if my body allowed it! But I'm pretty sure we are done!
