Baby update
This morning was our 24-week checkup, even though I'm almost 26 weeks along. The doctor had called for another ultrasound to follow up on an issue they noticed at our last appointment. My placenta was low-lying, and while they said this is supposed to correct itself 90% of the time, it was still low today.
Which means...at least for now, don't exert myself too much (ha!!) and be happy about all the extra ultrasounds we get to have!
Baby Dolphin is ahead of the curve in his growth (shocker!), super-duper active, and most definitely still a boy. He is breech right now, which I could have told you since he has been riverdancing on my bladder lately. And he has no hair at this point. This is odd to me. The other three of us have very thick hair, and tons of it. Oh well, guess that could still change.
Will someone please tell me why I don't remember being this big with Trey, and still with three months to go?? I am huge. I feel like an overstuffed marshmallow peep. It was a shock today when they weighed me and I have only gained 8 pounds. Seriously, this is crazy. The warm weather needs to arrive soon, because I'm not sure of how much longer I'll be able to wear socks. I can't reach my toes!
I do remember, near the end of my pregnancy with Trey, Brandon offering to bring home one of those library carts from school, so I could put my belly on it and wheel it around in front of me. (Insert squeaky wheel sound effect.) At the time it was funny. Not so much now, as I can't rule out that I'll actually need it this time.
Ah, the joys of pregnancy. Wouldn't trade it for the world. Love you Baby Dolphin!
