26 week doctor appointment

So my appointment was yesterday, and all is well. I gained 2 pounds in 4 weeks (can you tell my appetite is back?! Hello Christmas goodies!), BP good, pee good this time. The baby's heartrate was regular — the standard 150 it's been — and I am measuring right on track.

But. And there is always a but. The baby was in a breach position so once again it was impossible to determine the gender. It's butt was waaaayyyy down in my pelvis, couldn't even get a peek! Dr. H of course thinks it is funny, because every time we go to peek the baby is not not NOT allowing it! And I want to know!! So much for my Christmas wish! LOL! It's okay that the baby is breach right now, as it has lots of time to move (or be moved!). Fingers crossed.

And another but. But this time a butt. I swear this is a girl because I am getting a butt.

I got to go in 2 weeks to get my Rhogam shot. In my big butt. Then go back on January 14th for the routine check-up. I will be 30 weeks. 30 weeks!! Holy doodles.

Sounds like a good appointment except for the hiding baby...maybe you will get a happy new year present eh? Good things come to those who wait.

And breach at this stage, no big issue. Many babies are like that and then flop right before birth! Your baby will know what to do!

That baby is part contortionist, I swear!

Darling Cynthia, I have to laugh because it looks like this little Trixter is going to keep you guessing until almost the very end! The best laid plans aye? I agree with Cathy, Happy New Year Momma, I'm a ____ !!!!
I'm still on the "think Pink team"
