Nothing to look forward to

Amorlinda

After yesterday's big U/S i feel like there is nothing to look forward to until my LO decides to come out.

What's next after the 20wk u/s? Besides the regular monthly visits? I fear i wont see an u/s for a long time lol

Oh, there is plenty to look forward to. 

Back pain, swelling, braxton hicks, another 10 or 15 pounds, night sweats

I thought the same thing... be careful what you wish for!

No more ultrasounds, most likely, but you have tons of baby movements (and a kick count chart somewhere around week 28) to look forward to!

Oh, and your glucose test, lol.

As always, wee is wise.  In my case though, it is 10-15 lbs every 1-2 months. 

I know what you're saying though.  I don't get to see LO until a 36 week growth u/s and I have no clue how I am going to wait another 6 weeks.  But things will keep you busy, like watching your belly move more and more everyday, shopping for baby, setting up the nursery, baby showers, etc.  And I keep telling myself that time is going to fly by with all the holidays coming up - before I know it Isabella will be in my arms!

What about choosing a name and decorating LO's nursery?

Ha! That is more like not looking forward to... wanting to cry just at the thought of it!

We have another u/s next week at 29 weeks - birthing/parenting classes (if you're taking any), baby shower(s), finishing the nursery, and having a baby in your arms soon! And of course maternity leave!

I won't go down the road of not so fun things lol.
