How big is baby? Squash is appropriate. Squashing my bladder for sure.
Appointments this week? Ultrasound on Saturday to check baby's position. We need to make sure he's not breech so if he is, I can get to work turning him. The sono people want to do a full biophysical profile and measure fluid, etc. But I'll be kicking them off my belly as soon as position is determined. I don't like excessive ultrasound and believe third tri measurements are notoriously inaccurate.
Symptoms? I just feel big. Finally getting over this stupid cold crud.
Rant/Rave/Questions? I'm so done with DH working so much for so little. I'm worried how things will be when baby arrives and he still has work and a degree to finish.
GTKY: What do you and your partner have planned for Valentine's Day (if anything)
Nothing planned. DH will come home with nothing for me, because he is still convinced I don't want anything (I dislike getting flowers because they're a waste) but in reality I hint at him bringing me something sweet every year and then he will backpedal and go find something crappy at the last minute once he realizes he's screwed up again, but somehow always returns to being convinced I asked him not to get anything. I adore him even though he sucks at Valentine's, luckily.
How big is baby: roughly 16.75" and 3.75 lbs, the size of a squash
Appointments this week: I had my routine 32 week appointment yesterday and it went well! Baby's heart rate was 140, my fundal height was measuring 31.5, and the doctor was really happy with my weight gain. She did say my blood pressure was slightly high 129/84 but She wasn't worried, just mentioned it. I also got my TDAP which is a little sore today.
Symptoms?: pregnancy insomnia is bad this week, also having a little bit of pelvic pressure, but overall feeling pretty good!
Rant/rave/questions: I'll rave about my doctor being super patient and giving me time to answer all my questions this week, and also my DH who was able to come with me and got emotional hearing the Doppler. He was deployed for our anatomy scan, and hadn't seen the baby or heard the heartbeat since week 11.
GTKY plans for Valentine's Day: nothing big, just a little quality time. Maybe order dinner out and rent a movie.
