33 week belly pic!




Tomorrow we will be 33 weeks! Only 7 weeks to go, I can't beleive it! What seems like took forever all of the sudden feels like it went by so fast. Baby Robert is moving up a storm in there, his movements have decreased a bit due to the fact that he's running out of room to do anything super gymnastic in there. He nudges and pushes, stretches and does other stuff that I have no idea what body part it could possibly be or how he could possibly fit in there. I'm thinking that he's about 5+ pounds now and he's should be about 19 to 20 inches long. He'll just gain fat from here on out and shouldn't get too much taller. We are just about ready for him, plus or minus some wipes and diapers. I have two baby showers coming up, one at work on the 3rd and one at the neighbors house on the 5th! Everyone loves our little boogar and I can tell he's going to be spoiled rotten! :) As he should be.

My next appt is August 6th, where I will get my last growth scan, make sure he's still sucking up all the food he needs to grow big and strong. I'll keep you all posted. :)

31 week belly pic!


So tomorrow we are 31 weeks pregnant, only 9 weeks to go! :)

I had my growth scan today and found out that Robert weighs in at a whopping 4 pounds 3 oz., he's HUGE!! He's about 2.5 weeks above the average weight at his gestional age, which means he's VERY healthy and growing strong. I'm still predicting an 8 pounder on D day!! (delivery day, not dooms day) :)


He was very active with a heartbeat of 143, which is perfect, his feet were by his head and he was moving up a storm for the technician. She could feel him pushing on the ultrasound peice when she was moving it around. He gets the hiccups about 3 to 4 times a day, I'm guessing my amniotic fluid is pretty tasty! He swallows it, and then gets the hiccups, this means that he is doing what he is supposed to in practicing breathing technique. He's so smart, getting ready for his big appearance, such a planner, just like Mommy! :)

Our next appointment is on July 22nd and my next growth ultrasound will be around August 14th, where I'm thinking he'll be around 7 pounds (if I'm calculating right). I'll keep everyone posted in a couple weeks.
