Quick update for those who aren't on Facebook or happened to miss something.
So about a week and a half ago (8/17) I was out with my girlfriends and the kids, and as we were all heading back home I tripped over the wheel of a bike and fell... partly on my stomach. Thankfully I tried to catch myself with my arm and knee (I still have some road rash on my knee) and I only hit on the right side. One of my friends called the paramedics and the other called her husband to get Jared over. It wasn't long before baby girl was moving like crazy, which as much as that made the pain I was in worse it was a relief. The paramedics came and checked me out and everything was looking ok. They still suggested I get checked out, so Jared took me to the clinic and a doctor who is also a certified midwife did a more thorough check. Baby girl's heart rate was good and everything checked out fine.
At my last doctor appointment on 8/23 my blood pressure was great as well as my urine sample. My total weight gain this pregnancy is 19 pounds with 2 more months to go. Dr Steele says I'm doing great with my weight and says to keep it up. My appointments now go to every 2 weeks, so it means traveling a little sooner than I am use to. Thankfully I have a great bladder and can usually make the drive without having to stop.
In less than a month I will be moving up to my parent's house until this little girl decides to come. It really doesn't make sense for me to be driving up every week and I am guessing I wont want to travel that much. This means I have less than 1 month to get all my sewing projects done for this little girl. I still need to make burp cloths (I made the same kind for my friend who just had a baby in July and she says they are the best), 2 pillowcases for the throw pillows for the futon in the baby's room, the canopy cover for the car seat, and the arm saver for the handle of the car seat. Thankfully these sewing projects aren't too tricky and will only take a day/night each. The house seems to be mostly in order for this girl to join us so that is a relief. The tricky thing will be getting things organized after any baby showers that will happen over the next few weeks.
