Almost 31 Weeks!

Today I am 30 weeks and 4 days. I am very excited about Ella arriving! There are still so many things that we need to do before her arrival date!

I'm feeling pretty good. I'm definitely getting a lot bigger and my back is usually sore by the end of the day. I don't really have swelling which is really good at this point in pregnancy, but I also don't have the energy to go out for a long walk. I really want sweets all the time and my self discipline is not going too well when it comes to that.

March is almost over, therefore I really only have April and May left!!!! Brian said he's ready for me to be done with pregnancy. My response was "you're ready, what do you think about me?!!!"

This is me with Ella's cousin, Sarah! They will only be a few months apart!

3D Ultrasound

I am always a few days behind, but better late than never! Last Saturday we toured the Reston Hospital. It was almost a little scary because we saw the delivery rooms. I cannot believe that I will be there in a little over two months! I'm sure I will be SO ready when the time comes.

On Tuesday, I had a doctor's appointment and all went well except my platelet count is still a little low so she wants me to see a hematologist. I'm not too worried, I just don't want the chance to miss out on the epidural! She said that I shouldn't worry, but they would be able to tell why it is dropping (started out at 122, now 115).

Wednesday was the fun day! We were able to see Ella in 3D! It was definitely an experience. My mom was able to come up for the appointment. These are the three best pictures.

She didn't like the camera, her hand was in front of her face most of the time!

These are her feet and hands. The tech loved her toe!

This was the best image of her face. A little freaky!

I'm still feeling pretty good. Bathroom visits are much more frequent as well as some back aches. Overall, I still feel like I have no reason to complain about this pregnancy. Brian and I are both getting much more excited about her appearance!
