36 week appointment

I had my appointment with Dr. Leis today (a Wheaton graduate).  I asked her about all my Braxton Hicks and she said I needed to slow my pace for the walking and go on shorter walks.  I thought the opposite for some reason, that it's good to get this guy prepped for the big day since so many women walk a lot at the end of their pregnancies.

I was shocked at my weight.  I worked last night and ate and drank a lot of water before my appointment, so maybe that has something to do with it, but still, over 4 lbs in one week?

Wt: 146 lbs (with shoes, but it's always with shoes on so I have no excuse)
BP: 108/70
Fundal Ht: 36cm
Baby's HR: "130s" (but it sounded a lot slower than it has been to me).

Now to continue with my core exercises and bending over on all fours or using the birthing ball to keep this guy in good position.  He still feels very low.  This is all really exciting!

More gifts from Dan's trip to San Antonio!

Thank you Jean, Brittney, and Kent!!!  I love these!!

Thank you Diane and Bob!!!  I'd love it if he went to Trinity!  Maybe Dan can get a job there!!!  Oooo, and thank you for the bigger size!  I'll run out of clothes after 12 months!!!
