Well It's Thursday and I'm sitting here at work bored out of my mind because it's so slow and a lot of people have left for vacation already.
Figured I might as well do an update since it's been awhile.
I will officially be 33 weeks this Saturday. Only 6 weeks to go after that, give or take.
It's getting close and this little guy is still really really active. I think maybe he is getting anxious as well. He moves all the time and they say that babies movements are suppose to slow near the end because they run out of room.. Well I think he just decided to make more room for himself.
My last d/a was 12/10 and everything is going well. The baby's heart rate was in the 140's and up until then had always been in the 150's. The doctor says that the closer I get to having him the more his HR will gradually slow to the 120's.
My next appt was put three weeks out instead of two this time so I didn't have to come back during the holidays. So on 01/02 I will get to hear his HB again.
I've recently come down with what is known as PUPPP. It is a skin irritation that is very common to experience in the last trimester. Unforunately there is nothing the doctor can give me to make it go away, only creams to take the edge off the itch. All the itchy red bumps should go away after the baby is born, but up until then they can spread and get worse. So until this little boy decides to show up, I'll have to wear mittens to keep from scratching.
I actually had a dream lastnight that I had him already and he was born with so much hair that he practically needed a haircut right away. He would smile everytime I would try to brush it, but no matter how much I wet it down, it would stick up so I ended up putting a hat on him!! ha ha
Check back on Saturday for a new belly pic!!
