Out of the Water

Yesterday I had two baby appointments. The first one was in the morning at the Maternal and Fetal Medicine Office at Howard County General Hospital. We had our last perionataologist appointment, and (most likely) our last sonogram. Everything checked out ok. Our fluid was at 11, the baby is growing perfectly (everything measured right in line with where I am in the pregnancy) and he now weighs 3.1 pounds. His heartbeat was at 141 beats. Its kinda crazy that he went from being this little shadow hiding in my uterus to this big old baby who is moving and shaking! We got some more profile pics which I will try to post sometime this week so everyone can see where he is so far.

My next appointment was later on that night at the OB/Gyn's office and everything looks good they talked to me about the low iron and a little about my weight and since everything looked good I was on my way. Now that everything is over with the perionatalogist and I am pretty much in the clear I can say that a silver lining has been all the ultrasounds we got to have. And I think it was nice to find out how efficent the providers really are.

Next week I will be super crazy busy but I will try to find a day where I can post a blog about the Meet n' greet we have scheduled with the pediatrican (or at least who I think we are going to have as the pediatrician). Also I need to put on my schedule to post a September belly shots because man it has grown!!!

That is such good news! You are so organized talking to the pediatrician, that's awesome.
I can't wait to see the sono and your baby bump.

All about our family (when I remember to post it)
