I went in last week for my monthly ultrasound. Mireya is right on track with her growth. She is weighing in at 3 pounds 6 ounces! One of the first things out of the ultrasound tech’s mouth was, “She’s right in position, smashing your bladder.” Tell me about it! Who knew a little 3 pound baby could have such a heavy head…
I was able to bring Nana to the ultrasound this time. We not only got to see little Mireya in 2D, but in 3D also! The ultrasound tech took lots of photos of her little face in 3D. I think she may have my nose and Jason’s chin, but we’ll have to see. I’ve already posted all the ultrasound photos, they’re amazing!
She still refuses to stay still. She doesn’t seem to like all the poking and prodding. At one point she wouldn’t move her hand away from her face, so the ultrasound tech jiggled my belly all over to get her to change positions. It worked and thankfully we were able to get some great photos!
I start my NST’s at 32 weeks. I’m really grateful for those, because it will provide me with peace of mind once a week from now until delivery. I’m still having occasional contractions and some days I can’t even get up and walk around without triggering one. I know that’s one of the things they monitor. I have no intention of having this baby too early. You hear that baby girl, you need to hang out in there for at least another month or so! It won’t be too much longer before we meet!
