30 Weeks!

Can you believe it? Little Sophia Marie should be with us in a near 10 weeks (or so). Yes, that may still sound like a long time, but does it really feel like its been 30 weeks already!?

Here is my 30 week belly - its starting to round out nicely. I guesstimate in the next 3-4 weeks I may start sporting an "outie" (belly button).



We had a doctor's appointment on this past week. I maybe gained a pound, but the doctor said he isn't concerned about that anymore. Her heart beat was at 160 and he again said that I have one healthy baby in my belly. All my lab work from the previous appointment came back looking great and after taking my fundal height measurement - he was able to conclude that miss Sophie was growing very well and I was measuring almost two inches more then average. So as long as I don't start losing weight - my low weight gain (average at this point is at least 10 lbs - I have gained 7lbs) is no longer a concern.

Now you may be wondering - what is a Fundal Height Measurement? Well, I'm about to tell you! Its a measurement that Doctors take at each appointment to measure fetal growth and development. They measure from your pubic bone to the top of your uterus. It's measured in centimeters. Now when your pregnant, as you know with your growing baby, your uterus must grow. What I didn't realize before that it REALLY grows. At 30 weeks preggers, the top of it should sit a few inches above your belly button! The measurement should match the gestational age (the age of your baby while still in the oven - haha) of your baby. Below is a Fundal Height Chart.

Baby Belly Over the Last 3 Months!

Now that I am 7 months pregnant, I wanted to compare my belly shots up until now. Check it out below...

27 Weeks

So this will be a quick post. It's getting close to my bed time and Sophie is playing ping-pong.

Here is my week 27 photo. Friday I will be 7 months pregnant! Can you believe that? I can't. When I told Robby today he said "No, I believe it. We've been expecting it". yeah, Ok Thanks Mr. Know-it-All.



Since my doctor appointment one week ago, I have not even gained a pound. I'm at the point in my pregnancy that I should be gaining 1 pound a week. I'm trying to eat more. But I can't stuff my self, its just not comfortable. We will see, what the Dr say's when I got back in two weeks.

According to my last blood tests, I have low red blood cell count, so I am now taking iron supplements. I hope things at my next appointment go smoother. So far everything has been great, and having two things that concern the doctor, (even though they are minor right now and common) at one appointment is a little overwhelming at first.

Anywho....Im ready for a summer full of events, because before you know it...I'll have a sweet baby girl in my arms!

Night All!
