34.5 Weeks

There is nothing better than hearing a baby's heartbeat (and has me in tears every time) We started weekly (sometimes twice a week) appointments. Little man is looking good! Lots to watch for, yet at the same time, if labor starts, we are in the clear to have him.
34.5 weeks today! (Seriously, only 5.5 weeks left!)

33.5 Weeks

Weston tagged along with me to my doctors appointment this morning (yes, those bags are under my eyes, I no longer sleep). He was so excited to see his baby! Spencer is measuring 1.5 weeks ahead, we are 33.5 weeks today. He is positioned perfectly! We start our weekly appointments with nst's. All in all, it's looking really good! The countdown is on!

 You know it's time to have a baby when you can put your cups and bowls on your belly!

Crab for Weston!!

Weston has been amazing me this week! He pays more attention than I realize. The last couple weeks, this pregnancy has taken its toll on me. This week he helped me with his baby cousin Lily, getting his own food/drinks and today, I saw him outside and asked what he was doing "Mom, I picked up dog poop for you." Swoon! He has melted my heart and done so much without me asking. Weston is going to be the best big brother! Oh, he did ask if we can go get crab this week since he helped; absolutely! Crab all around!!!

Squishy Face

Yesterday, I went to see the perinatologist, our little Spencer is looking great! He is weighing in at 4lbs 9oz and measuring almost two weeks ahead! The 3D and 4D images are so neat to have! His legs and feet are wrapped up by his head. Can't wait to love on this squishy face!

Remkes Party of 4

I am so excited to have this picture! Ann, you always amaze me; you have a beautiful talent! I can't believe we are going to be a family of 4 soon!

32 Weeks and 1 Day

Today we are 32 weeks and 1 day! And I spent a few hours at the hospital. Our little stinker didn't move much this morning, so, up I went. The second they put the heart monitor on, he went nuts on movement! Needless to say, all is well, but he scared his Mom and Pop half to death. Only 7 more Saturdays kiddo, we can do this!

 

Say what?!?!?!?!

Today was another 2 week checkup.  Everything is looking great! Spencer is growing quite fast (and so am I, haha)  We are 29.5 weeks today and Spencer measured at 32 weeks! WHAT!?!?!?! No wonder my body has been hurting the last couple of weeks.  My round ligaments continue to stretch and bother me, there are days I can barely walk.  Spencer sits so low, I can feel him on both of my hips. Night time is still his favorite time to move around.  He has been breech until today, he is finally moving into position! Thank goodness, I was afraid we were headed down the C-section road.  I passed my glucose test with flying colors and there is no concern there.  I have one more two week appointment and then I will start to go weekly.  I will see the perinatologist one more time for a growth scan (I think Spencer is growing perfectly fine, hence above comment) to make sure everything looks good.  

I haven't really update about cravings or anything else this whole time.  My cravings change weekly.  Right now, I am into oranges and fruit.  I have been eating at least one orange a night for a couple of weeks.  Any type of sweet tea is my favorite.  Lime drinks, especially from Kirts.  This whole pregnancy I have been waking up around 6am starving, so I eat a blueberry granola bar or blueberry pop tart with a glass of milk.  Any candy and cheesecake is on the list also.  Olive Garden has a fantastic Andes Mint Cheesecake that is to die for.  And whenever Chris is home, sushi eating comes out in full force!

Now, I need to go and eat.  Something.  Anything.
