30 friggin’ weeks! I can do another 10 weeks, I can.

And I’m not talking physically – I still have very few complaints, I’m not achy much, I’m not near the “I’m so done” stage yet.

But mentally I’m starting to get a tiny bit twitchy. Just a little. (But then… I have been twitchy this entire pregnancy, ha.)

Appointment today – no ultrasound, just seeing the midwife. They were so busy and backed up it was crazy in the waiting room… strong dislike. It was 45 minutes before I got called back by the nurse, and then another 15 until the midwife saw me. Grrr. This is why I try to get appointments first thing in the morning, not at 10:15.

But all looks good, and that’s all that matters. My weight is showing a total of 20lbs gained on their scale (which is probably over by a couple pounds, I ate a big breakfast at IHOP before my appointment, lol), my blood pressure is right where it always is at 102/64. I mentioned my BH contractions, and was of course told it was totally normal, just make sure I stay hydrated (which I knew, but I wanted to mention it). Heartrate was good and strong, probably 140’s.

Den was all concerned last night about me not looking very big – even though I’m pretty much the same size as I was when pregnant with Devin – so I mentioned that too. My fundal height is at 29cm, totally normal. Plus she says at this point she’s not growing out yet, she’s still growing up, plus with her all lopsided on my right side like she is all the time it makes measuring a little less accurate. I also told her about how the baby wedged herself into an awkward position on Sunday and how I wasn’t really *sure* which way she’s facing. The midwife tried to tell by feel, but baby’s still not big enough to get a good position on the head. She’s definitely vertex, but she couldn’t say for sure which end was up or down. And she said with the hiccups, their whole body vibrate with them so who knows! I remain fairly convinced those are feet in my ribs still. We shall find out in two weeks.

I also asked her about the floor refinishing and she basically said when if the smell doesn’t bother me then it’s fine. So I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
