34 week update

So I had my doctor’s appointment on Monday and somehow all of the sudden I am measuring 2 weeks ahead! Not sure how that happened since I have been right on track or behind up to this point but they were a little concerned with that and had me do a quick ultrasound to check the size of the baby. From the ultrasound the baby was measuring 10 days ahead which is in the 72nd percentile which the ultrasound tech didn’t think was too abnormal but since I’m hoping for a VBAC it did raise some red flags since it looks like I’m going to have a bigger baby. She said that we will definitely want to keep an eye on the baby’s size and recheck around 38 weeks. If I go into labor before then I’ll be fine but if at 38 weeks it looks like I’m going to have another big baby we will probably have to reevaluate the plan :(. I don’t know what it is about me and big babies but now I’m really hoping I go into labor early so I can hopefully avoid another c-section. I guess only time will tell!! On a positive note, the ultrasound was really quick but she did get a close up of the babies face and switched it to 4D which I have never seen before so we did get a few quick pictures of our little (or should I say big) guy :). I think he looks like Ryan. What do you think???

33 weeks, 23 months!

I’m 33 weeks and overall I’ve been doing pretty good just the usual aches and pains that go along with the third trimester although they definitely seem to be worse this time around. I have found that yoga seems to help some so I’ve been trying to do that at least once a week. Enjoy the new belly pic and some new pictures of Gavin over the last month. We had fun seeing family over Thanksgiving and Gavin loved getting to play with Avrie. We also got our Christmas tree a few weeks ago and Gavin got to meet Santa last weekend. He was really interested in Santa from afar but definitely didn’t want to sit on his lap. He continues to keep us busy and quite entertained these days. He really loves music and dancing and his skills have upgraded from bouncing in place to dancing in circles swinging his arms very seriously. It is so cute! I uploaded a video under the picasa link - Gavin Videos of him dancing to some music a few weeks ago. We are getting ready for Christmas and look forward to seeing the rest of the family in a few weeks.
