Week 31

(In lieu of the typical belly-bump pics this week, here is a pic of my friend Kim and I at the fair - Dierks Bentley concert)!

Baby P is due to arrive exactly 2 months from today!!  And we can't wait!  Well, actually we can, because we still have lots to do before he/she arrives, but we are truly very excited and anxious for our little bundle of joy to be here. 

I will make this post short and sweet since I have been tending to ramble on in the last few posts.  My 30 week appointment last week went well.  Baby is still measuring 2 centimeters large, but my midwife keeps urging me to not worry, so I'm taking her advice and really trying not to...at least not too much anyway.  She almost scheduled me for an ultrasound for my next appointment, but decided to wait till after that visit to see how my measurements are then.  If I'm still 2 centimeters large, they will do an ultrasound to see if they can see why.  She said it could just be the way baby is sitting in there, could be a lot of amniotic fluid, could be the baby is breach, could be just that baby is a little large, or could be (worse case scenario) that baby has some kidney problem that I can't remember the name of anymore.  But she reiterated that she is not worried at this point, and if she was at all, that she'd be scheduling an ultrasound for me right away.  So, I'm just taking it easy at this point and playing the waiting game.  I tell you what though, feeling this baby swim around inside me sure makes all my worries melt away though.  I can't explain the pure joy I feel when I just think about the little baby growing inside me.  And lately, all the movements have been extra fun.  When baby pokes out a foot or an elbow, I poke back at it with my fingers and it squirms away.  We play this game together for a few minutes before Baby eventually wins by tucking back away and hiding till next time.  :)  Such fun!
We are going to the fair tonight to see Montgomery Gentry play, so I'm anxious to see how Baby reacts to all the loud music!  And Dierks Bentley plays Thursday night...can't wait!
