31 Week Check Up

I had an appointment today with my OB/GYN. I seriously was expecting her say one of the following:

"You've gained too much weight."
"You are so swollen, we need to make sure you don't have edema."
"Your heart rate is too high, we need to run some more tests."
"You're walking funny. Let me check your alignment."
"You look like you are carrying triplets. Let's do an ultrasound today just to be sure there is still only one baby."

But, fortunately, I was given a 100% thumbs up that all is well. My blood pressure was good; my weight is spot-on to where I was with both Dillen and Roxy at this point; my belly measurement is normal; and my urine sample came back without any concerns. She even did an ultrasound to check my cervix which she told me is holding well and nothing to be concerned about.

Piper is also doing very well! Her heart rate was strong and she is growing normally. The big bump always pushing at my belly button is not her rump like I thought, but her head! So, it's been her feet that have been kicking my bladder and her arms that have been stretching up to my lungs taking my breath away. Again, my doctor showed no concerns saying that it won't matter if she turns or not since I am scheduled to have another C Section.

7 weeks and 2 full days left... I cannot wait to hold her!!!
