I feel like these last 7 or so weeks are going to be the LONGEST weeks of my life! Every day is just anxious anticipation for LABOR DAY... I'm a complete mix of emotions; terrified, excited, scared, anxious, and somewhat prepared.
I'm definitely at the point in my pregnancy now where actual body parts become visible and noticeably felt when she kicks/punches me. It's very odd to be sitting on the couch and have my stomach move involuntarily... She's a strong baby!
We had our 32 week check up yesterday and Dr. Banks (she's amazeballs, by the way) said that Parker is doing exactly what she is supposed to be! She's turned, so she's head down, and her heartbeat is a strong 140. We won't have another sonogram, which is super odd to me since we haven't seen her since we found out she was a girl back in April... and that adds to my anxiousness quite a bit! But she said that there is no need unless something goes wrong. So I suppose I should be comforted by that!
Matt and I completed a Prepared Childbirth course online, as we couldn't get into any of the classes offered at our hospital... But we are signed up for a "Basic of Baby Care" course in a few weeks. That should be interesting! I'm not sure how many diapers Matt has changed in his life before now ;)
The childbirth course terrified me even more... so I am trying to make a point to stop watching birthing videos and freaking myself out! At this point, it is what it is!
Will continue to keep our friends and family updated through the blog as we get closer to D-DAY!!
