Dr. Visit

Had my final dr. visit while I'm here in VA today! It went really well! Of course, I've gained weight but I don't think too much... didn't want to ask the doctor too afraid he would frown on the amount. Heard the heartbeat and tried to take a video but not the best one... but it was still there and that is all that matters! Also learned that the placenta is sitting in front so it's acting as a cusion / spong to any kicks and jabbs. I'll still feel the baby on the sides and on the bottom just not in the middle. Hopefully this means toward the end they won't hurt. ;) Other than that, my fundal height measured 22 cm which is right on since I'm 22 weeks! :) Only 3 days left!!! We're excited to see Gary / daddy! :) I finally got a newsletter from parents.com for this week and this is what they have to say... My Baby: In addition to those teeny tastebuds he's sprouting this week, your baby is also developing his sense of touch -- he can experience what his own face feels like, for example. The hair on his head also continues to grow this week, although this is one area where your genes might not make their mark right away. In many cases, the locks your baby's born with bear little resemblance to the hair he'll have at six months old.
