30 weeks & stockin' up!




I had my 30 week appointment last Wednesday and everything is looking good! Addison's heartbeat was a strong 140 however, it took my OB a while to pick it up because every time she put the doppler on my belly, Addison would kick it! She packs a mean punch that girl! I will now be going to the doctor every two weeks for a check up. I am still measuring a little ahead of schedule ( a week and a half) however, my OB said that really doesn't mean I will deliver early, it just means she is growing right on target.

I am starting to get more and more uncomfortable. I guess that is about right since I have a mere 30 extra pounds of baby/body weight attached to me. Getting up out of bed has become quite a chore and Kevin knows to put his hand on my back in the middle of the night to launch me out of bed so I can use the bathroom for the 20th time! I know all of this will be worth every minute this baby lives in my belly but there is a reason that men don't go through this - they just couldn't handle it! Although Kevin always tells me he would dominate pregnancy! Right!!

I made a little trip to Target last week for some diapers and wipes because they were on sale and I had coupons and I figured I would need them sooner or later. I bought both Huggies and Pampers brands because I am not sure which is better. If you have experience in the diaper field, I would appreciate your input. I also bought some baby lotion, Butt Paste (aka diaper rash cream) and some cute little pink shoes that I could not pass up. They were 3 bucks!
