My Baby Bump ~ 29 Weeks ~

29 weeks you are here and we cannot believe it. People keep looking at me and cannot believe how fast this pregnancy has been going. Maybe it is because we are counting down and just so darn excited to meet you. Either way…10 more weeks and you will be in our arms.

Speaking of that, that is crazy. Your Dad and I have been brought to tears lately thinking of how holding you will feel and how having you wrap your tiny little fingers around ours will be. The joy you have already brought into our lives is unreal. We cannot imagine watching you open your eyes and hear you breathe.

Every day after dinner your Dad and I sit and stare at my belly. That is when you are the most active. He keeps saying how much he can’t wait to play with you. I think he is a little confused about the newborn thing. No trucks and toys just yet Daddy. But it is adorable watching him fall in love with you. He has been the greatest husband throughout all of this and will be the most amazing Dad on the planet. No doubt about it.

I will be honest though, I am getting pretty nervous. Nervous about all it actually. The labor of course is something that scares me so much but even more, when you arrive. I am trying to be as planned as I can be but as everyone says, I will apparently just know what to do. So let’s hope that is true because I feel pretty clueless right now. I am doing my research so I at least know how to change your diaper. I promise I will do everything I can to be the best Mom to you ever. Right now…just a tad scared.

So we had your monthly (now bi-weekly) doctors visit this week.

You are still healthy in there, from what we know. There are some concerns. You (me) are still measuring big though. You went from 23cm-29cm-33cm which apparently is too big for where I am at right now. It can mean a few things.

1. You are one big boy in there (which come one, help me out here! Your Dad and were both small when we were born)

2. I have a big placenta

3. There are some fluid concerns

I asked about the fluid but they won’t tell me anything until they know further. So obviously they don’t want to worry me with possibilities of something that might not be. So, we get to go to another ultrasound in a couple weeks and check things out. Scared for the ultrasound for sure, BUT it is a great excuse to get to see you again!

Other than that everything looked good. I gained 2 pounds this time and your heart rate changed quite a bit. You have been steady at 146/147 and were coming in at 133 this time. You must have just been sleepy.

Oh and one other thing. The doctors said you are already head down. Now I know you could do some ninja moves and flip back up but this is a good sign that you want out…the natural way. So do your Mom a favor and stay their please.

So we will wait to hear more news about you. But I know everything will be okay. If you are anything like your parents you are strong, full of will, and strength.
