30 week appointment

WOW am I really at 30 weeks already?? Do I really just have 10 weeks left and 8 weeks until I am considered full term?? This is scary! I am not scared about actually having my own child, because I am ecstatic about that and I can't wait to hold my little girl in my arms.  I am scared about the actual delivery!! It is a scary thing. I know women do it all the time, but geez to think you actually have to push your own baby out can be sort of.....well scary. I just don't want anything to go wrong. People can tell me until they are blue in the face that it will all be fine and I am young and I will do great, but sorry people you are not God or a fortune teller so anything can happen.  I know they are just trying to help and I really do appreciate that!! All I can do is do what the doctors tell me to do and say a little prayer and hope everything goes smoothly so we can have a healthy little girl!

So today I had my 30 week appointment. We did the normal routine; pee in a cup, step on that awful scale, check blood pressure, measure belly, feel around on stomach to see where baby is, listen to heart rate, ask "do you have any questions?" tell you to be back in 2 weeks, and sent me on my way. So here is the update

Weight gain-  From last appointment to this appointment 0. Total gain in pregnancy- 13lbs

Babies heart rate-  145

Belly's measurement-  Right at 30 weeks

Babies position-  Still breeched, but she has time. She will be late to flip because she gets her lateness from her mommy

Things I miss since being pregnant-  Wine

Things I crave- Nothing really. I have to have orange juice in the morning and I usually eat the same thing, a whole wheat waffle with peanut butter on top and apples.

Size of baby-  According to the internet 4 lbs and 16 inches long

 Maternity Clothes-  Maternity jeans, work pants, a couple shirts, but usually just wear loose fitting shirts

 Sleep-  I sleep on my side with one preggo pillow between my legs and for me to hug and one behind me that I have to stuff under my back. I sleep okay, but if I get woken up its time to pee!

This weekend is going to be an exciting weekend! Saturday we have an angel prints appointment to be able to get a sneak peak at the baby! They will do it in 3d/4d so we can see her little face! Sunday is one of my baby showers and I just can't wait! I hope this week flies by!!!
