29 Week OB Appointment

I had my standard OB appointment today (29 weeks) and things are looking good. My blood pressure is normal now, I've put on a total of 20 lbs (according to the doctor's scale, which is 'light'), and I got the results of last week's u/s.

Baby A is head down (girl) and was measuring around 2 lbs 12 oz. Baby B is angled head down (boy) and was measuring around 3 lbs. 2 oz. Apparently they are growing right on track for singleton babies, so that's great! But wow, I'm carrying over 6lbs of baby now!!

And I had to laugh...this belly just keeps on growing. I'm now measuring 42 weeks in size - straight out.

I had contractions off and on this past weekend, so apparently I 'bought myself an internal' today - and my cervix is still nice and closed. I guess these two are still comfy inside.

Because I've started having contractions, I'm now on weekly appointments until the end of this pregnancy.

But all in all, a good appointment! Yay!!

Love that they're still referred to as Baby A and Baby B... You seem to be doing so awesome Carol. So glad to hear it. Good luck and keep us all posted.
