Week 35 Appt. Update

I didn't expect this appointment to be anything eventful but it turned out to be kind of exciting. During the exam, the doctor thought she might be a little small for being so close to D-Day, which of course got me a little anxious. He ordered a sonogram just to be sure everything was progressing normally and, even if she was small, that she was growing properly. Of course, this would be the day that the sonogram tech was booked with back-to-back appointments but they worked me in and we got a good look at little Brianna. Only, she's not so little! The sonogram estimate puts her at 6 1/4 pounds already! She's also measuring 36 weeks, 1 day, which is almost a week ahead of where we are based on my original due date. Everything looked and measured just fine as well so that put my mind at ease. The coolest part of it all was I got to see her yawn! She had her little face turned just right as they were measuring her head, she opened her little mouth and treated her mommy to the biggest, cutest yawn I've ever seen! We got a picture of it so I thought I'd share it with everyone. I personally don't think she's going to wait until February to make her arrival but we'll see how the next few weeks progress.


As for me, I'm holding steady on weight gain as this was the second week in a row with no change. Everything else is healthy and normal so its just a waiting game from here on out. I think that hospital bag I've got a list made for needs to actually get packed though. Its crazy to think that she could be here soon! Also, here's this week's installment of belly pics.

Love you all,
