amy and i are excited. we have a dr's appt on aug 9th, which includes an ultrasound. that means we get to see pip! haven't seen her since april too. expecting the technician to tell us that she is super long again. but i am measuring fine and there is no reason to think she is going to be a giant (yet). after this appointment, we go to weekly visits. yikes! we also have a breastfeeding class on aug 8th too. a new friend of ours is a lactation consultant for seton and teaches classes there. glad to have her on our side!
over the weekend, we went through all of our gifts from the shower. washed everything, broke down the boxes and tried to get the room organized. we got some really awesome stuff and very thoughtful gifts. amy and i really appreciate every single gift! i wonder when we are going to find time to write all of the thank you cards? grandma jan so kindly got us started with buying us cards, stamps and return labels. so we really don't have an excuse to get started on them.
tonight we are going to learn how to put the car seats in properly. should be easy, but doing it when it is 100 degrees outside may be challenge. or will the mosquitoes get the best of me?
Your Baby in Week 35 of Pregnancy
Your baby is standing tall (so to speak) this week at about 20 inches and continues her steady weight gain (she’s about 5.5 pounds). While she won't get much longer, she will continue to pack on the pounds — including large amounts of baby fat — right up 'til delivery day. Something else that's moving at a mind-boggling pace these day: fetal brain development! There’s a lot going on inside that tiny head, which is, by the way, still soft to allow an easier exit through the birth canal.
