Released!

I had double drs appts on Friday and saw both the maternal fetal specialist and the OB. I'm down to every week now with the OB- gulp! Can't believe we're so close! My blood pressure was slightly up at the OBs office, so I'm going to have to keep an eye on that. No other signs of pre-eclampsia, so we'll chalk it up to some not so comfy contractions in the waiting room. Everything else was normal, we tested for Group B strep and next week we'll start the cervix checks.

The second appt was much more fun, growth scan for Scooter! Our little girl is measuring 6lbs 4oz, which is the 52nd percentile. I've never been so happy to see average in my life! If I make it to my due date and she gains one ounce a day as is typical, she'll weight 7lbs 12oz, which is right in between where her daddy and I were. She also apparently has long arms, all of her measurements were right on date, or within a day or so, except her arms. They were measuring 38 weeks! Maybe a future swimmer? We also got a couple of face shots and any worries I had about my baby not being cute are gone. So in love already, I can't wait to chew on her chubby cheeks!
