33 Week Check Up

   Yesterday was a pretty busy day! I had my 33 week appointment with Dr. Musgrove to check on baby Logan as well as the Mother/Daughter banquet at our church that evening. I'm happy to report that everything looked great with Logan once again. His little heartbeat was 155 and he's really kicked it up a notch in the growth department. Dr. Musgrove told me once again that he will at LEAST be the same size as Kal-el noting that he had grown noticeably since my last appointment. I don't see how I will carry a 9 lb baby! For starters even with Kal-el being nearly 8.5 lbs I still managed to avoid stretch marks last time around and my tummy managed to go back to normal. If you SAW me last time I'm sure thats shocking...trust me it was to me to lol :) But thats just the cosmetic side of things. That much baby will totally and completely wear me out at the end of this journey. Not to mention the fact that he already feels HUGE and I have a little over a month to go. I always refer to him as "little Logan" I guess because he's the youngest but I suppose thats as big of an oxymoron as naming a Saint Bernard "Tiny" :)  My blood pressure still looks good which is always a concern because of how it came up during my first pregnancy. My pressure is currently hanging out at the high end of normal. I still consider this a blessing because I was already on meds by this time carrying Kal-el. Dr. Musgrove is super through so he wants to start seeing me every week now just so he can monitor it closely for preventative measures. This extra precaution really puts my mind at ease! I'm so glad I chose him as my OB after Dr. Wakefield retired. I've really been happy with him. We are still looking at mid June for the arrival of baby Logan. We are getting so excited and I'm getting sooo ready! I look forward to our 4D ultrasound. Can't wait to share those pictures as well as my maternity pics in the upcoming week!
