Baby M Update (4 weeks to go)

We had a Baby M doctor appt this week and I'm just now getting around to posting about it...oops!

My blood pressure is still doing awesome - 124 / 76
I'm now up to a weight gain of 13 lbs
Baby is still very active and my belly measurements are right on track
I'm finally starting to feel like the projects I'm wrapping up at work will be all finished before I go out on leave.

My next appt is a week from this coming Wednesday. I'll get another ultrasound to check on baby's growth and then I see a different doctor within the practice since my doc will be on vacation. And of course, this starts my internal checks...yippy! Actually, I'm having an internal for the bacteria test. I questioned if it was even needed since we will deliver by c-section, but since we just never know what will happen, my doc wants the test just in case my water should break prior to our scheduled day. From there, I will be seen each week for 2 weeks and then Baby M is scheduled to make her grand entrance into the world.

Mama just brought over clean infant clothes. She took them home early this week, as she offered to wash them all for me. Granted they were put away clean and have been stored away until needed - I just wanted to make sure they were really nice and clean before Baby needs them. Mom said she real enjoyed washing and folding the tiny clothes and I offered her the JOY of doing my laundry on a weekly basis, but she didn't take me up on the offer - DARN!
