32 WEEKS

This past Thursday was my 32 week appointment. I met the last of the 4 doctors in the practice at this appointment, Dr. Turner. All of the doctors have been great so I know that whoever is on-call when I deliver will help make the birth a great experience. The baby's heartbeat was between 150-160 beats/minute. She was moving around quite a bit when the doctor was examining me. The doctor suspects that we will have a fairly active baby in our life in about 2 months. It seems like every time I wake up at night she's moving around & she moves a lot during the day, too. I just hope she sleeps SOME when she gets here. I'm growing in weight & tummy size each visit but haven't gained so much that I won't be able to get back into shape...thank goodness. We've decided on a name (99% sure)...Reagan Ashley Brown. We're so excited to meet her!

30 WEEKS

Just got back from my 30 week appointment. Everything is going perfectly. The baby's heartbeat sounded strong; the doctor was able to pick it up right away. I am measuring 29 cm & gained another two pounds since my last visit. Except for my constantly pulled groin muscle & occassional lower back pain, I feel great!
