Even though I don't feel like paying for an extra ultrasound (insurance doesn't cover them), I'm excited to go tomorrow. They want me to have one to see were baby might be weight wise because of my gestational diabetes. They also want to measure the amniotic fluid and check on the viability and placement of the placenta. I also get to find out what position she is in, head down, feet first, or transverse. I have no idea, I mean I feel her move all over and can't tell if it's a foot, arm, elbow, butt, or head. I know they can change positions in these next weeks, I'm just excited to get to know now. Also baby's face should not be as skeletal and creepy looking at this point. She should have fat on her and look very close to what she'll look like at birth.
Here's some info on 36 weeks. I also have my non stress test on Thursday. Thank god my laptop came in at work. I have to test it at home today to make sure everything connects because I'll be using that a lot so I don't have to drive as much, plus it will be nice when it snows.
There are still things hanging over my head that have to get completed soon. Pediatrician interviews, hospital bag / list, songs on Ipod, belly cast, henna belly, copies of insurance cards, important numbers and birth plan. I still don't have a nursing bra, but really, I could care less about that at this time. I'll get that when I can. I'll deal if baby comes and I don't have it. But the other stuff has to be done before baby greets us.
It's time for walk with the hubby and Jorge. To all a great week!
