Baby Belly

 Gosh we were so good at taking belly shots with Trevor, this kid not so much so Sara whipped out her iphone to capture a 33.5 week picture :)  So for all you baby belly fans, here you go!

 

And a side shot - love how Trevor is looking up at his baby sister :)  He loves her!!

 How does this compare to when Sara was pregnant with Trevor?  Pretty close!  Here's 33 weeks last go around....

 

Weight gain to date is 24.5 pounds...exactly where she was with Trevor.  She's on track to gain a little over 30, again, just like Trevor but it really doesn't matter to Sara how much she gains.  Every pound is worth it for the baby growing inside!

How is baby girl doing?  Fabulous!  We are so blessed to have an OB that likes ultrasounds as much as Mommy and Daddy (and as much as her MN OB did!).  Baby girl has had ultrasounds at:

-  4 weeks (in ER after fainting episode)
- 6 weeks

- 8 weeks

- 12 weeks

- 13 weeks

- 16 weeks

- 20 weeks

- 21 weeks

- 23 weeks

- 24 weeks

- 26 weeks

- 28 weeks

- 31 weeks

- 33 weeks

and she'll have one again at 35, 36, and 37 weeks for sure to see if the little stinker is still breech.  Not that it really matters since she'll be c-section!  Why so many ultrasounds?  Well, it helps switching OBs due to the move, having a Daddy with a bi-cuspid aortic valve, a Mommy that's adopted and in AZ the 12, 20 and 24 week ultrasounds are done at a Fetal Women's Center so then when we go back to our normal OB he wants to do one himself too! 

It's fun being able to track her progress each time and hear her heartbeat.  Oh and of course confirm she's still a girl :)  Stats so far: 4.1 pounds, 18.5 inches, and a head that is still measuring over a week ahead of the rest of her body.  Sometimes a c-section is just fine :)
