I was in SL over the weekend for one of Jen's bridal showers, and here is a picture of us...I am a few days over 33 weeks in this picture. Thanks to my friend Jenni for the great dress she loaned to me - I got lots of compliments on it! :)
Josh and I were at the doctor this morning. The heart rate was between 140-150. However, my doctor thinks the baby is still breech...she is pretty sure she felt the head up high and the back of the baby wedged off to my left side (which might explain all the movements/sensations I have been having on my right hip bone). Anyways, at our next appointment in 2 weeks, we will have another ultrasound for a position and fluid check. She gave me some exercises and pressure point things to do in the next 2 weeks to encourage the baby to turn. I did ask her if having a breech baby is hereditary since I was breech. She said she had actually just read an article about the fact that it might be...if my mom's pelvic bone or uterus was oddly-shaped...mine might be too...and the baby might not be able to get turned into the right position. SO...not the end of the world, and Josh and I are actually very excited to see our baby again - I bet he/she will look so different! (Although we are both a bit afraid we might see more of the sexual organs than we want...we will have to remind the ultrasound technician to hide those.) :) I am still feeling great for the most part - starting to notice it is hard to get my breath sometimes, and more tenderness in my legs/hands if I use them too much...although I was just outside for 2.5 hours sanding some furniture...oh well! :)
We will be going home this weekend again for the 4th of July, and off to Okoboji the following weekend for another bridal shower for Jen/Grandma's time share at Village West. Crimson was in Storm Lake all last week, so it is good to have her back - it is silly how much we miss her when she is gone - we are such geeks! :)
