29 Weeks

29 Weeks! Baby is the size of a Butternut Squash. 

So today is the last day of being 29 weeks so technically today I am 30 weeks living my 31st week. It's all so confusing! It feels so good to be at 30 weeks though, it's the final countdown (sing it , you know you want to fiinaaall cooountdoooooown)

We went to the doctor today for a little check up, I'm feeling so much better about the delivery. The scariest thing about being pregnant is actually getting this baby in the world. But our doctor is amazing and I'm feeling pretty good about it. I decided not to take any classes and the doctor said that was a good idea. I've decided that everyone and their mother and their mothers cat has an opnion on how it's going to go and I don't need to hear it all. I'm still reading my what to expect book and I want to read a little about breast feeding but besides that I'm just going to let my body do it's thing, it should know what to do. Plus a little prayer never hurt ;)

We listened to the babies heart he sounded great, and the doctor said the baby was head down! I don't know why but when he said that I was totally shocked/relieved/shocked. The whole pregnancy I had tried really hard not be set on one way of doing the birth and told myself that if the baby never flipped a C section would be totally fine. But now that I know I will for sure be doing a vaginal birth it feels way more real! However it's really good he has flipped and I hope he stays that way. 

I now 156 yikes! So I've gained 12 pounds, and the doctor says I'll probably gain another ten. Holy Moly! I feel pretty good about it though, I haven't gained a ton and hopefully I stay normal until the end. 

Like usually he is moving like there is no tomorrow! Last night David was touching my stomach and he moved so hard I thought David had grabbed my stomach. His movements are getting more like motions instead of little kicks or punches I can feel his arm or leg just slowly jab into one spot like he wants me to move. Sometimes he moves so funny it causes my stomach to look like it's doing the wave.

I didn't really crave anything this week, I did notice some funny veins on my thighs this week ugh!!! Still no stretch marks, however I did go and buy some fancy lotion just in case. 

Everything is pretty good, we are so excited for him to get here and a little anxious especially as it's getting closer.
