31 week appointment

Had my 31 week appointment last night, unfortunately Jordan couldn't come which was ok he has a new calling he couldn't get out of. Everything looks good. Cervix is still measuring 2.6cm which is great for me and baby weighs about 3 pounds 13 oz. She is a very active baby. She just moved around and wiggled the whole time. We watched her making some sucking motions on the ultrasound. Also got to see her cute little face for a brief moment. Time is really flying concidering. Not sure I'm ready for this. I know I am ready for the "no sleep" part of it because I really don't get quality sleep now. The baby was up at five so I just laid there until six and decided to get up and make cinnamon rolls. Anyway that's all for now. We have another appointment next Thursday so until then!
Here is some cool facts about baby:
Baby’s energy is surging, thanks to the formation of white fat deposits beneath the skin. (Have those kicks and jabs to the ribs tipped you off yet?) Baby is also settling into sleep and waking cycles, though -- as you’ve also probably noticed -- they don’t necessarily coincide with your own. Also this month, all five senses are finally functional, and the brain and nervous system are going through major developments.

28 week appointment

Went to the the doctor's on Thursday, my mother-in-law went with me because Jordan was out of town. I was really nervous about this visit because the day before I was having tons of contractions, maybe partly because our fridge went out and we had just went grocery shopping and half of what we bought was wasted AND I didn't know what the crap to do because my husband was out of town. I thought for sure she was going to tell me that I was completely effaced BUT when she checked my cervix was 2.16cm!! Not the best number out there but it was for me! She really thinks that the GBS was causing all of this and that the antibiotics I was taking helped. She seemed confident that I would go full term but still wants me on bed rest for now. Good news!!
