Today’s appointment felt more like a “normal” one.. (finally!)  Had the very last sonogram to check for cervix length.. It’s around 14-15mm now.  Down from last week, but this could very well be normal, maybe not, hard to tell at this point, since preparation for delivery is around the corner regardless of being high risk.  I got to sneak a peak at baby boy too.. He seems very content in there, so hopefully he stays put just a little while longer.  The nurse tried to see if we could tell how much hair he has, but she couldn’t quite get that far around his head to see.  On a funny note though, she started laughing and looked at me closely to see if I had a cleft chin, and asked if my husband did.  I said noooo, don’t think we do.. She said she’s curious to see him once he’s born because he could either have a defined, square shaped jaw or a cleft chin.. Too funny.  He’s still head down, bottom up on my right side, and little feet in the center/sometimes in my right side.  Yep, that sounds like the norm for him!  I then saw my dr, and since the sono was done prior to, she couldn’t do the fetal fibronectin test again (too much, um, “interference”.. lol) but she wasn’t too concerned.  Measurements were good, belly still measuring exactly at 32w1d, and while I’m still officially on bedrest, she said in 4 weeks from now, at 36, she would “release” me and I would be allowed to do normal activities.. No marathons, but normal activities.. Yay!  4 weeks =28 days.. Eeek!  That’s really not too far away!

I have to say again, that I don’t know what I would do w/out my husband.. He has been busting tail around our house to get some projects done, fix meals, bathe Ashlyn, cleaning tasks, etc. and I’m so, so thankful for him.  He’s more than proved to have a Mr. Mom role!  (I’m not so sure he’d want to keep that for good though..hehe).. Love you, honey!

And here’s little man once again..

I know sometimes people look at sonogram pictures and go “huh?”.. lol   This might help see little man’s face a bit more..

Another foot shot..
