30 Weeks!

Wow, we're really closing in on the big day! Fortunately, the little dude's room is finished, with the exception of painting the crib, which I'll be working on today out in the garage. Other than that, some minor organization might help, but hey, we've got the basics covered, and I think we're ready...
*fingers crossed*
(I'll be eating my words come May, right? lol)

We went for another check-up yesterday, and Adam took the afternoon to work from home so he could come along with us to the appointment; he asked some really great questions that I hadn't even thought of yet! We have a great partnership in this, and I feel so fortunate that we have each other to rely on. Together, we might just make it through this! ;) And with some extra help from you all, we're solid!

It was a boring, standard visit, but all the better because boring is what we want. No surprises here. My glucose tolerance and iron count and all that came back fine, and I don't have to be poked and prodded again until Week 36, when they'll do some final testing, yay! Lil' dude's heartbeat sounded strong and steady. I was so glad for Adam to get to hear it again, especially now that he can see and feel movement in my tummy! "His" baby is a happy one. Yup, we have officially started the "my" baby/"your" baby thing, as in: Adam, "your" baby is sitting on my freakin' sciatic nerve again, the little shit! And of course, he's "my" baby when he's being a perfect little gentleman, haha!

To give y'all an idea of how he is growing, Sprout is now at a point where he is poking his little feet up under my ribs when he stretches out. And other times, I can feel him almost reaching my hips! Hard to believe, isn't it? (And hard to breathe, come to think of it...)

Well, that's all I've got for now! This weekend, Adam and I will be taking our Prepared Childbirth class at the hospital and getting a short tour of the maternity wing. And next weekend, I'm so excited to have a baby shower hosted by my awesome sisters-in-law, Amy and Susie. Lots of fun stuff coming up! I'll let you know how everything goes!
