Dave and I just had our 1st Anniversary over the weekend. It was a nice weekend. We cannot believe how much has changed in one year and that we will be having a baby in less than 2 months! It has been a little stressful going through so many life changes in one year but I think Dave and I have grown and learned a lot about each other through the process.
The pregnancy is going well. We (me especially) cannot wait to be done with this stage of the pregnancy and to meet our little guy! I had a doctor's appointment last week and the doctor said that the baby is already in head down position which will make delivery much easier. The baby's heartbeat was strong at the appointment. My blood pressure, iron levels, and other lab tests have tested very normal. My belly measures about 33 weeks now which makes my due date around June 5-11. In a few weeks the baby should move lower in preparation for delivery and hopefully I will be able to have more room to breath and digest food! I feel the baby constantly especially about an hour after I eat. I now know which of his body parts are moving where. His elbows are hitting my elbows, his feet are kicking my ribs and I can feel his hands in my lower abdomen. He especially likes to move at night when I am trying to sleep! This is getting me used to sleeping less! Dave and I have started taking childbirth preparation classes. It is fun to see all of the pregnant bellies in class and to meet other couples going through the same thing.
