He's Getting Bigger

So today was another growth ultrasound. I convinced my Dad to go in. I dont think he wanted to at first. But I think he was okay with it after. He has a hard time making out the pictures. So when I told him they display it on a flat screen tv and he could see him moving, he had a change of heart.

Logan is measuring right where he should be. He looks perfect. He now weighs approximately 3 pounds 6oz. Not bad!!! According to all of my baby sites and books, he is measuring right where he should be. So that is a huge relief.

Eric and I then waited to talk to the doc. We went over all of my charts/results whatever. And everything was looking good. They are going to take me off of one of my meds because it is raising my liver enzymes. Whatever that means. haha But it is okay if I go off it. And I will now be seeing the doc every week two times a week until he is born. This will start on week 32 actually. I will be getting what is called a Non Stress Test. Basically they will monitor his for over 20 minutes. And I will get an ultrasound. And if they show he is in any sort of distress they will induce labor. If he is as happy as he has been, then they will leave him alone to cook a little longer.

Of course we talked about the fact that she can not believe we made it this far. Which I dont mind me and Eric saying. But it doesnt sound good hearing it from a doctor. But she is super Debbie Downer. But she said she was really hopeful that we could get to 34 weeks. She says that will make her feel like this is no problem at all. So lets hope.....thats our next goal.

My cervix measured at 1.9cm. Which is good (for me at least). And like I said the baby is perfect. And today the ultrasound was so clear we totally could see what his face looked like. We could make out his nose completely. Too which Eric said he looks like him. haha And he looks so cute. And they took a snap shot of his foot. And I said I was pretty familiar with his feet. As he beats me up daily. haha

So now I am laying down as I should be. And I am shopping online to finish up my Christmas shopping. So as of now, that is all. oh and I have to get some more water in me. Apparently I am ALWAYS dehydrated. I swear I feel like I can float away. But I guess it is not enough.
