1/21/09 (part 2)

We had another doctors appointment this afternoon. We got to hear Collin's heartbeat again. It's so weird knowing it's not your own heartbeat you're listening to, but really neat! They took my weight again (the low point of my day..haha) but I had only gained 1 lb in 2 weeks so that's great!! I always dread stepping on that scale. I know it's baby weight, but it's still unfortunate seeing that scale go up and up and up and up..............

Then the doctor came in an measured my belly, and I forgot to ask what the measurement was but I must still be measuring correctly because she didn't say anything. I told her I had been feeling sick so she prescribed some medicine to help with the nausea. I don't know if it's a bug or if I'm just backwards and getting morning sickness in the 3rd trimester instead of the first. I asked her if I went past my due date how long she would wait to induce and she said only 1 week, so we know for sure Collin will be here by the first week of March. I'm hoping it doesn't come to that!!!!!

We asked her about the pediatrician we picked and she said she's heard great things about her so that's good news. She also felt around my belly, pressing on different parts to feel how the baby is positioned and she said he is head down so that's good news too! No breach baby! She said his head is "waaay" down low already so I'm really hoping that means he is getting ready to come soon!!! (Of course not TOO soon! but in a few weeks) We scheduled an ultrasound for next week so they can estimate the size of the baby, but I may reschedule it for a week later so it's closer to due date time and we have a better idea of what kind of torture I'll be in come delivery day!!!!!! :0/
