Baby Update

At my last couple appointments our baby girl has been quite the turkey. Apparently I have lots of fluid so our little darling is very content to swim around and not stay in "position". She is head down and not breech, thankfully, but she likes to bob up and down. So at the moment I'm not even close to labor. I know a lot can change in a week, we're just hoping that she decides to cooperate with in the next two! Everything else is great! Good heart beat, I'm doing well...just waiting.

One thing I have to share that just made my day. Because of all the fluid she does move a lot still. Big movements that you can see from across the room. At school last week I was in the middle of reading group and she did one of her big flops, the kind that make my whole stomach swish swish from side to side. A student just across the table from me calls out "what the heck just happened to your stomach?!" I said, "It's o.k., the baby just moved." Even louder he says, "YOU HAVE A BABY IN THERE! Oh I'm so glad, I thought you just got fat and I didn't know how you could stand it!" The whole room had a good laugh.
