28 weeks & getting bigger every day!


Today I had my monthly doctor's appointment today at 28 weeks & was told everything is going very well. The baby's heartbeat was very strong & loud in several places & was 130. My weight is about right too. The Braxton Hicks contractions are getting more frequent & much stronger. Now I start having appointments every two weeks until 36 weeks at which time I start going every week! I also have a last ultrasound at 35 weeks. Now it'll start flying by, even if day-by-day is tough sometimes.


My son behaved very well during the appointment. He played with the toys before & put them away nice when it was time to go in. His first question to the nurse was, "going to check baby in Mommy's belly?" Then I had to explain to my son how we only pee in a cup for the doctor's sometimes for them to test the inside of our bodies. After they listened to the baby's heartbeat on my belly, my son said, "my turn!" When I received my RH shot today (which hurt), I was careful not to react with my son watching. After they put on a band-aid he said, "Mommy has a boo-boo?". In the waiting room as I made my future appointments, my son yelled to try & get another little boy's attention. Before we left, he said sorry nicely to the little boy. Then he fell fast asleep before we were out of the parking lot. Overall, I was was impressed how well my son behaved. He's definitely growing up on me!
