Since my posting about my last OB appointment I've now had 6 others with the most recent being yesterday! They've all been routine and I'm happy to report that everything is going great! I'm now starting my 37th week and going to weekly appointments until I deliver. My blood pressure, urine and weight are all good. The baby's heartbeat sounds good and the doctor's been able to feel that he's in a head-down position for about a month now...or as she calls it "launch position". With his head down, his butt is positioned in my upper left side and his legs and feet are in my upper right...which explains why I feel so much movement and stretching on my upper right side! He gets the hiccups at least twice a day and even though he's getting bigger and space is getting tighter...he finds a way to push around and stretch. He's very active and seems to like car rides and hearing his daddy's voice.
I've been feeling great and Reuben and I have been keeping busy on the weekends with getting our apartment ready with new baby furniture and organizing all the wonderful gifts. Our friend Jason is coming over this weekend to paint the baby's room and then we can get all the furniture situated. Once we have the room set up I'll post some pictures! We've also been busy going to some prenatal classes. We went to childbirth preparation, infant care, breastfeeding and car seat safety classes. We learned a lot from each class and with each one we were a little more prepared than we were before. Now we just need to finish his room and we'll be all set! Three more weeks and counting!
