Doctor's Visit and Ultrasound...

This has been such a busy week that I am just getting to posting about my appointment on Tuesday. Well, Molly is gonna be a BIG baby- she is 4 lbs. 3 oz. right now. This means if I go to term, she could be 8-9 lbs. That second number scares me!!! The u/s tech also said she seemed to be long, but couldn't get a good measurement because of her position. She is still breech. If she hasn't turned within the next few weeks, she may not be able to because of her size. Then comes the conversation about having a version to try and turn her or having a c-section. At this point, I have no clue which would be best! Their are so many risks associated with a version and they are not always successful, but a c-section is considered major surgery and requires more recovery time. I am trying not to stress right now because she could turn, but I also want to make an informed decision. We'll see what happens between now and my next appointment. On the ultrasound, we got to see her feet again. They are sooooooo long and have a high arch- just like me! No Fred Flintstone feet like her daddy. She even has hair- we could see the wisps of it on the u/s! I am shocked because I was a bald baby. I don't think Tim was, so maybe she will look like him and just have my feet. We'll just have to wait 8 more weeks and see. Wow! 8 weeks---- now panic is beginning to set in! Anyway, the rest of my doctor visit went well. I have gained some weight, but am still about 10-12 lbs below where I started thanks to over 5 months of AWFUL morning sickness. My blood pressure was great and my glucose test results from the 3 hour test were "really good" in Dr. M's words. Yay!!! Now if my stubborn girl will just turn before she gets too big...


This Saturday is my big shower. I am so excited and can't wait to see everyone that is able to make it!!! Now it is bed time for me! Busy day tomorrow- work, hair appointment, Winterfest at work, and then to mom's to take care of a few things for the weekend!
