28-1-2010 - 35 week check up! relieved!!!!!!!!!My mood while writing this blog:
relieved!!!!!!!!!



I went to the doctor today, and was so so nervous. My last appointment had me a little scared about this one! When I first got there they immediately did my ultrasound. My little boy is head down! YAY! :) He was still breech a couple of weeks ago! But the ultrasound tech said not only is he head down, but he is very very far down! This was the first thing I was nervous about so what a relief to know that my little boy is in position to exit the womb! LOL :) I cant wait to finally meet him!

Next came his measurements... Now I was so nervous because the doctor really stressed that he thought my baby was going to be HUGE! As most of you know, he even made me feel a little guilty about how I was eating and he wanted me to cut my carbs. (Which I didnt! HEHE!) I gained 1 pound in a week and have gained a total of 14 pounds which to me isnt much and I didnt really think I was eating to much or the wrong foods. (Although I do not deprive myself! LOL A girls gotta have her food!! Yummy! ) So anyway baby is measuring at 37 weeks. Which is actually only a week and a couple days more.. And he has been measuring about this much bigger the entire pregnancy. They have estimated his weight at 6 pounds 4 oz!!! Whoo huge relief!! The doctor I saw this time estimates that my lil baby Braydon will weigh about 7 1/2 pounds. WOW big difference from the 10-11 pound baby my doctor was talking about at my last appointment! So haha on you Mr. Cut-Your-Carbs! LOL My guess is still that my lil one will weigh about 8 pounds.. So we will see!

I am so excited!!!!! YAY!!! Next appointment is in one week... Hopefully then they will check my cervix. I got my group b test today and was a little disappointed they didnt check seeing as how they were in the area! HAHA! Maybe next time!!

Thats all for now! Thanks for all the reassuring comments on my last blog! Love you all!!!

Tanya and Baby Braydon

I'm so glad your baby is not to big for you ... a 10lb would be hard to get out. Best of Luck to you : ) Your almost there!!!!

That's good news!

All good! You only gained 14 lbs? Wow, I already gained over 40 lbs! I don't get it either. I am not over eating, definately not snacking a lot. Good thing is you would never guess I gained that much as I am mostly belly and my legs are really swollen. I guess a lot of it is water retention. Be happy with your 14 lb weight gain :)

I am convinced that doctors have no idea what they are talking about a lot of the time...LOL. I am thrilled to know that everything is looking great...I thought that it would all be perfect!

wow that is a good sized baby!!!! not to big and not to tiny, a healthy baby. dont listen to stupid docs who think every women's body is the same. half the time i think docs dont know what they are talking about!!!! lol you are doing great.... all my babies measured a week and a half behind up till the last min when they grew so quickly and i pushed out healthy weighted babies. so dont worry you body know what to do and so do you.

I'm so glad you had a reasurring appt. I hate it when they try to make you feel bad about weight gain/ baby measurments. Like we don't have enough going on and hormones already make us feel crazy. LOL I am happy for you and glad he is o longer breech now you can relax and wait til the big day :)
