Ok, so it's been forever since I posted. We've had a busy couple of months (moved) and now things should settle back to normal.
I just had my 30 week midwife appointment yesterday afternoon. Things went well-the baby is head down (YAY) and anterior (YAY) so everything looks good on that front. HR was about 144. I'm measuring at about 31 weeks, which is ok, since my first ultrasound actually places my EDD at May 13, not 17.
I haven't taken any preg pictures lately, we should get on that. I'm a lot bigger than last time. But it's still all baby, so I'm ok with that. The bending over part sucks now. Ben does my shoes up for me (what a nice husband) and I thank him for that.
I've set up my sewing machine in the basement with the computers and am still hard at work crocheting things. I've added several items to the baby's wardrobe so I'll have to take some pics.
I have a baby shower coming up, the family one, on March 29th. It's at our new place, for lack of location in London, but Lindsey is gonna run it (yay Lindsey!). Should be good times. I am hoping people will actually USE the baby registry that we spent hours completing - it lists all the stuff we NEED and want. Especially since there are so many things that we DON'T want.
I've added some things to my unacceptable list, too: plastic toys (can we say leaching chemicals?) and things from China. Which pretty much rules out WalMart, but I think that's the point...once the babe is older and having birthdays, holidays, etc, we'll enforce the no plastic toys no stuff from China rule. I hope people believe me when I say we'll just throw out the gift or give it away rather than give it to our child, so maybe people will actually make thoughtful, conscientious decisions when it comes to buying toys. I'd rather he/she get a nice homemade gift, or a book, or whatever....but maybe that's asking too much?
