Dr. Appointment

Good Evening -

Andy and I had the final two week doctor appointment this evening!! Everything was great - I had lost a little weight which concerned me but the nurse said that happens - plus once I got to thinking about it, I am not sitting in front of a computer all day. I am going for a walk everyday (when it is nice) and doing stuff around the house. So it makes since and as long as it's normal.

Blood Pressure was perfect, babies heart rate was Strong and steady. Baby's head is still in the right position and my belly is measuring right where it should be for this week!

We are 36 weeks tomorrow! Can't believe it. Next Doctor's appointment is next Friday at 1:30pm.

Tomorrow I'll post some 36 week pictures!

34 Weeks today - and hospital tour!

Okay - I'll get Andy to take a picture of my belly when he gets home.

Today makes 34 weeks - I can't even believe how quickly it has all gone.

We went on the hospital tour on Wednesday night and for me, it all really started to sink in when we were at the hospital. The new maternity ward at Chilton is so nice. The waiting room is wonderful with comfortable seating, a computer with Internet, flat screen TV, relaxing fish tank and a coffee machine that makes everything from espresso to coffee (all for free!). The labor and delivery rooms were state of the art and such a nice place to bring a little one into this world! The recovery room was also just as nice - almost like a room at the Hilton. The best part is the hospital offers a celebratory dinner on the night before you are discharged and Andy and I took a look at the menu - they had steak and lobster, strip steak, and much more and the desserts were also out of this world! What a nice touch!!! I can't wait to be there and to see the little bambino that is kicking the tar out of my ribs!!!

Pictures later!

Dr. Appointment Update

Andrew and I met with Dr. Domenitz this afternoon for our two week checkup.

We had a great checkup- my blood pressure was great, baby is measuring just where he/she should be and the heartbeat sounded great.

The best news is that Dr. D said the placenta is okay where it is and that we won't schedule a c-section! YAY!! I mean, of course, something else could happen where I would need one but it won't be because of the placenta.

Andy and I are going to tour the hospital tomorrow night and I am really looking forward to it - our hospital just finished doing a complete makeover to the maternity wing and from what I hear it is awesome! I'll tell you all about it tomorrow night.

So we've got another Dr. appointment in 2 weeks and then we go into the once a week appointments. We are really getting close!

Hang in there for the nursery pictures - we are almost ready for the unveiling.
