36 weeks - Tuesday, Septemeber 22, 2015

One more month!  The ultrasound went well this last week. To compare to before.. the last one showed that he was about 2.5 weeks bigger than where he should be. This time, 3 days bigger. So, I guess he was just going through a growth spirt. I don't really understand how they can tell the difference between 3 days, but hey! He is also over 6lbs at this point. I've read that babies typically add about 1/2lb per week at this point. So, we'll probably have an at least 8lb baby. They only wanted to keep him under 9lbs, so we'll see how far he pushes the limit. They also said my blood sugar has been good and to keep doing what I've been doing. His belly was a little plump, but not anything to worry about. I did find out that I'll have another ultrasound at 38 weeks to see how he's grown as well. So that's exciting! I think I have started to feel some slight braxton hicks contractions, but only like once per day. My feet like to swell up (hence the picture) and occasionally I get some nice kankles. I'm still having appointments every 2 weeks. This next one will be the last one. After that, it'll be every week.
