So we are 31 weeks along today. I am so excited and can't believe we are already to this point. I am feeling really good, but having a little difficulty sleeping. We had 2 doctors appointments this week.
The 1st appointment was with Dr. Thathcer at Sarpy County, that appointment went pretty well, heart rate looked good, I am now being hooked up to a monitor for 15 minutes each appointment. The heartbeat looked good and Baby Caitlin is measuring right on track for height. I have loss a total of 5 pounds since my last appointment, but she doesn't seem to be to worried about that.
The 2nd appointment was with Dr. Robertson at Methodist, I am really enjoying these appointments more and more. I love his attitude about things and how relaxed he is. We again got to see our little girl, who is now around 4lbs! It so crazy to see how big she is getting. She is measuring right around the 70th percentile for weight, so he does want to watch that a little more closely. He said around week 36/37 we should be around 7 lbs and the lungs should be pretty well developed by then...meaning that he is okay with delivering any time after that point!!! Which is crazy to think we could have a little baby in just a few short (which sometimes feel very long) weeks.
I think it is starting to hit Derek and I a little more each day as we work on the nursery that our little family of 2 is going to be a little family of 3 soon. I think for the most part her room is done, we just need to add some "finishing touches". Just waiting for the arrival of our little one. I will try and post pictures this weekend of the nursery.
