Weeks 36-38- the bump.

37 weeks- FULL TERM!

38 weeks

Another 3 weeks have come and gone and I'm still pregnant! Baby girl has been doing good and passing all of her tests (non stress tests and biophysical profiles that the doctor has had done twice a week for the past 4 weeks). I won't lie, even though I am loving how close of an eye they are keeping on the baby, going to the hospital twice a week can be exhausting! And, it has also been somewhat of an emotional roller coaster as each time I go in, even though I feel mostly confident everything is probably okay, I still sometimes wonder- will something be wrong this time? But, once again I am really grateful that my doctor is being so great about making sure our baby girl is doing okay! 2 weeks ago they measured her again and they estimated her weight to be about 5 lbs 9 oz- a little over a whole pound bigger than the previous 2 week growth check (she was measuring about 4 lbs 6 oz)! She is still lagging behind in growth as far as percentiles and averages go, but she made enough progress for the doctor to feel confident that she could keep growing inside me a bit longer!
