\"32<\/a><\/p>\n

I figured I’d give you a belly shot for fun.\u00c2\u00a0 We only have 8 weeks left, maybe 7 depending on when we can schedule the c-section.\u00c2\u00a0 I’ve told little miss she can come anytime she wants after 37 weeks!\u00c2\u00a0 We had an appointment with my OB on Friday and she still looks great.\u00c2\u00a0 Apparently she is going to take after her daddy because she was commenting on how big her foot is and that she has some long leg bones – she measures over a week ahead of what I am.\u00c2\u00a0 She also said she already has some hair that is “standing straight up”, just like her brother, Ian’s was.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m hoping she takes after her momma and is born with a head full of hair.<\/p>\n

I am still having a ton of contractions, I get them no matter what I do.\u00c2\u00a0 They are getting stronger and more frequent as I get further along in the pregnancy and now they actually hurt.\u00c2\u00a0 We talked about some of the medications I can take to stop them or atleast help them, but with my cardiac issues, I can’t take any of them.\u00c2\u00a0 One will drop my blood pressure (which I already have issues with) and the other will shoot my heart rate up (which I have a ton of issues with) so we are left with just being miserable.\u00c2\u00a0 I am going to continue to work as long as possible (although if she told me I had to go on bed rest, I would gladly accept it this time).\u00c2\u00a0 My plan is to work up until 38 weeks or so depending on how I feel….we’ll see what happens.\u00c2\u00a0 I will go back for another appointment in 2 weeks.<\/p>\n
