I had my 27 week midwife appointment a bit ago. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE homevisits??? It just doesn't get better than having Donnellyn come to my house and chat with me on the couch and let W "help" take my blood pressure and listen for the baby's heart beat. Today he wanted to play with the lube (the stuff they use for the doppler, not some sex thing) so she squeezed a little on his hand and let him go for it. He got to wipe my belly too. I am really looking forward to the summer because the big kids can be involved and I think that will be helpful in getting them excited about meeting their new sibling.
Well anyway, everything looks great. I measure right on track, have great BP and baby sounds good. Baby is also already head down and she taught me how to feel the little head and tushie for myself. I also think after talking to Donnellyn that have made some decisions about hiring my birth photographer. Now I just need to figure out about finding a doula. Those crazy doulas!
My stats now:
weight gain: (*gasp* more than I gained with the others total!!!) 20lbs
measuring 26 weeks
feel great
BP 90/60
I promise belly pics up in the next few days!
