The ultrasound and Doctor's appointment went good. Kylee looks healthy at 4 lbs 7 oz and in the 32%ile. Of course, ultrasounds are not 100% accurate. If she continues to gain her half pound a week, by 40 weeks she should be around 7 lbs 7 oz. We got a few 3D ultrasound pictures again and reconfirmed for the 6th time that it is definitely a girl. The "hamburger" picture was the most clear picture we have of our baby! LOL! The Doctor said that everything looks good, but because my abdomen was measuring slightly small, he wants to make sure that Kylee is still growing properly. He wants to do another ultrasound around 37-38 weeks.
We have finally gotten to the point where we are counting down the weeks until our baby's due date, rather than counting up! 5 more weeks! YIPPEE! I am excited and scared! I can't wait to meet our little girl, but I am nervous about labor and being responsible for a newborn! Kylee's room is finally complete, all her things are washed and we have put the cradle in our bedroom. We are using the cradle that my mom used when my sister and I were babies! We take our birth and baby class this coming weekend too! I have not packed my hospital bag quite yet and I still want to read "BabyWise". I put the reading off till last because I know I'm going to want to relax more in the next coming weeks! Work is dragging on and some days I have more energy than other days, but overall I am still feeling pretty good. My cravings haven't been too crazy. I have been back on an apple kick...applesauce, apple pie, baked apples, etc.... My ankle swelling has gone down some and my weight gain has been normal, unlike my last appointment! We now will start going to the Doctor's every week until my due date!
