I had my 28 week OB visit on October 6, 2009. I had the routine 28week glucose tolerance, a urine analysis and CBC tests done. Haven't heard anything about them so that must mean I passed with flying colors! I gained another 5 lbs and am up to 168 lbs. Ugh! I measured right on target at 28 cm and the baby's heart rate was at 148 (I think...). My BP was good too at 110 / 60. Dr. Gerber felt my belly and said that the baby felt like he was head down. She couldn't exactly tell but thought his backside was facing my left side and his knees were facing my right side. There's still plenty of time for him to flip flop around in there but hopefully he'll behave and stay head down!!! I start going to the OB every 2 weeks now. It sure does seem early for that but I guess it's the way it's always been.
I'm still feeling pretty much the same. Tired, trouble catching my breath, peeing about every hour, slow walking and belly discomfort. During the 27th week, I realized I was feeling the little guy's hiccups. He gets them at least once a day if not several times a day. I think he even hiccups in his sleep because sometimes that's all I feel with no other movement. It cracks me up when he gets them!
Ellie felt the baby for the 1st time on September 22nd. Carter doesn't hold still long enough to feel the baby. However, he LOVES to lift up my shirt and hug and kiss my belly. He does this mostly at night when we're laying down and snuggling in our bed before they go to bed. I LOVE it when he does that!!!
On October 11th, my friend, Sara, came up to our house and shot the pictures below. She did an AMAZING job!!! I'm soooo excited to have these pictures to cherish!
