31 week appointments

Now that we're getting closer to Baby Whitesell's arrival (about 8 more weeks!) we have doctor's appointments more frequently. I now go to my OB appointment every two weeks and have started weekly sonograms to check on her growth and fluid levels. As of our appointments this week, she is measuring in the 50th percentile and is 4 lbs already- this is good news and the doctors are really happy with her progress. They estimate she'll be about 7 lbs when she's born. Sounds good to me considering I was 8 lbs 9 oz!

During the sonogram, she stuck her tongue out at us!



Once they switched over to the 3D sonogram, she covered her face with her hands so we didn't get too many good shots this time. We really like our ultrasound tech, it is a treat that she does the 3D sonograms for us. It is not medically necessary to do, so we really appreciate it.








Congrats to our friends Cory and Lindsay on their new arrival this weekend, Baby Juliet. She and Baby Whitesell are only going to be 2 months apart and we're excited that they'll get to grow up together. They already have matching Virginia Tech tutus and are all set for their first VT game this fall!

Also, happy early birthday to Jason! We went to the National's baseball game today for his birthday- we had awesome seats a few rows above the dugout but the Nat's lost in the 9th (no surprise, they've only won one so far this year).
