39 week pregnancy appt.

i had my dr. appt this morning…
i had a 45-50 min NST test. baby was very quiet, dr said he was asleep! i started having some significant timeable contractions about 20 min. into the test.

my belly seems to have caught up a week. the dr. was really happy with my/baby’s growth last week!

based on my small measurements in the 3rd trimester it does not sound like my dr. wants me to go beyond my due date. on monday he will check to see if i am dilated (i have not yet had an internal) and if so we will discuss induction. i am crossing my fingers that we do not have to induce!

Featured big girl room

do you remember Madison’s beautiful nursery? Madison’s mom just finished her “big girl” room! i just love the wall color with the gingham pillows…too cute. to learn more details about her room visit bringingupmadison.blogspot.com.

Featured Nursery – Baby Boy

Cooper’s nursery is so beautiful. i love baby blue with the distressed white furniture!

some details from mama… “We are totally out of space as he is baby number seven so I removed all the shelving in my wardrobe, patched up all the walls and repainted. Now his room is my favourite in the house! Everything was done on a tight budget and almost everything was from eBay, etsy or garage sales.“

38 wk belly pics

2nd pg = pink and blue pants
1st pg = blue pants

i had a drs. appt on tues. and am still measuring about 3 wks small. but dr. felt better after seeing the 36 week u/s measurements (baby was in the 36th %). he mentioned that this baby may just lay differently in my belly. i have also heard that many women carry their 2nd/3rd baby much lower since abdominal muscles are so stretched from previous pregnancies. the baby continues to be active. next week we are starting NST tests.
(i am still at 34 lb weight gain…the exact total of my 1st pg.)
