Just two days shy of being 36 weeks along. Today we had an non-stress test before my regular OB appt. It's also our son's 4th birthday today. He was such a trooper today sitting through my non-stress test. I sat there hooked up to monitors for a good 1/2 hour and he didn't complain once.
All looked well with baby girl. She was moving around like crazy during the non-stress test. I still haven't gained much weight, which is all new to me. With both our other two kiddos, I gained 28-30 lbs, and that was after I gained back any weight lost in the beginning. With this pregnancy, after gaining back the weight I lost in the beginning, I have only gained 5 lbs over my starting weight. That is how much the baby weighs right now. I just don't get it. I guess as long as she continues to grow and stay as healthy as possible, that is all that matters to me.
We go back again next Monday for another non-stress test and my almost 37 week appt. Not much time left til the big day. Have to say, although I'm so excited to meet this little girl who seems to love doing flip flops inside me, I'm so very scared for her.
All positive thoughts and prayers are welcome. She needs each and every one of them that she can get.
