Baby Girl, 29 weeks:

Sorry about the quality of the photos here, folks!  It's a super sunny day, and my mirror is dirty, and my camera lens needs to be cleaned...and so do my floors.  :)  But, this is about all the energy I have for this today, so this is what you get!  Also, no head shots as it's been a while since my hair has been washed, and I just wasn't feeling the makeup today... ;)



Getting the right angle is always hard for me, I feel like...
I passed my glucose test at 28 weeks, so that's nice.  Pretty soon I'll start doing my weekly non-stress tests where they count heartbeats and movement for about 30 minutes at a time, AND the ultrasounds weekly where they check to make sure that the baby is breathing (or at least exercising those lungs with fluid).  These Dr. visits take FOR-EV-ER, because they have to sit there and just wait, watching the baby, until it breathes.  Sometimes that happens in the first 5 minutes...often it's a good 15-20 minutes of me chatting with the ultrasound tech.  Fun fun!

This now means I have 10 weeks to go until we for sure will have a new baby around this place.  I highly doubt I'll go into labor early, but I guess you never know.  With Layla I went into labor with her naturally at 39 weeks, my labor with her was 36 hours long, and she weighed 7 lb, 13 oz.  With Finn I was induced at 39 weeks, my labor with him was 30 hours long, and he weighed 8 lb, 13 oz.  With this one I'm guessing I'll be induced at 39 weeks, and I have my FINGERS CROSSED for a labor that is under 24 hours.  That seems reasonable, right??  I have NO idea on weight.  However, I wouldn't mind a majorly chunky baby.  :)
