We had class 7 of 9 last night, and all is still going well. I'm up a total of 31 pounds, my blood pressure is pretty good, Baby Boy is measuring right on track, and he's head down and ready to go! His heartbeat is still strong in the 140s and is very regular. Even though it seems kind of silly to be proud of an involuntary action, I feel so proud that his heart is beating so strongly! He's our little over-achiever already.
Last night we had a pediatrician come talk to us about things we'll need to consider and look for in the early days after our baby comes. He was very knowledgeable and patient, so we're considering him for our pediatrician. There is still so much to do in the next month!
As for me, I'm at home on the couch right now. I'm waiting for our midwives' office to open so that I can get my note disabling me from work. I had hoped to get the note last night, but our regular midwife wasn't at our class. The one that was said to call in the morning, and either of them could get the note to me today. I'm not too worried about it, but I am eager to get the paperwork in and officially start my leave! I'm in limbo right now, which is a weird place to be. I half feel like I should have gone into work with Dan today, but my swollen ankles are thanking me for being home.
