We hve started having doctor appointments every 2 week now, so we went to the doctor again on Tuesday. Everything looks good for both of us. The checked bloodpressure, urine, weight, measured uterus, and listened to babie’s heartbeat. All is right on track! My ankles have started to swell over the last couple weeks, so that is pretty gross. I attached a photo that really doesn’t do it justice. It’s not too painful yet, just annoying and hard to fit into shoes. I just might have to buy a new pair . The doctor looked at them and wasn’t worried, no fear of preeclampsia right now. We got to meet our actual doctor for the first time and really like her. I hope she will deliver, but the xhances are not good.

I’m also starting to be more uncomfortable with the bowling ball attached to my stomach. It’s harder to get up and down off the floor or chair, and a little harder to breath at times. I’m loving that she is moving around a ton! Its not just little flutters either, simetimes is can even see it. She especially likes to put her foot up in my ribs when I’m sitting down. It’s so amazing to feel her in there. She’s only had hiccups once, and moves the most in the evening.

We have completed 3 of the 6 sessions of our birthing class. It is going well, and we are learning a lot. We had mixed thoughts about taking it, but decided it wouldn’t hurt to get more educated. It has been pretty entertaining and so stereotypical of any birthing class we’ve seen in the movies. There are 6 couples that are totally different and would never be in the same room otherwise combined with a teacher who is really perky and talks in this sweet voice. The best part is the end of every session when she turns off the lights and we do some kind of relaxation exercise. We watched two bith videos and that may have been tmi, but oh well. Next on the list is nursing and infant care classes. It’s fun going to the classes together and great conversation starters for us. That’s all I have for now, more to come I’m sure
