Hooray for more baby pics today! :)
We got to see our little guy for the last time (maybe) before we meet him in person. It was an amazing experience as usual and it makes the anticipation for him to arrive all the worse! The lab tech was wonderful and answered our many questions, which we typically have. One of my questions was whether or not we could see if he had hair, and sure enough she found it and pointed it out for us :) It was like a fun game to see what we could find and explore. She was a good sport and so was the little man. It was amazing to even see how he has grown since the last ultrasound. He is so filled out, and looking at his face really looked like we were seeing him, not always that creepy alien looking form.
According to the computer, calculating all of his measurements puts him at about 5 1/2 pounds this 32nd week of pregnancy. Either we are going to have a porker on our hands, or he is coming early. We start to see the doctor bi-weekly now and we will be sure to be discussing this! If baby keeps growing at this rate, I will not look forward to delivering an 11 or 12 pound baby!
What a wonderful time in our lives to experience this wonderful miracle. I have heard time and time again that I am going to miss this when it's gone, and I know for sure that I will. But we are definitely ready to meet him and we find ourselves thinking of the time often. There just aren't words to describe the wonderful and special miracle of growing and nurturing a human life that you created. When he comes out, he will have all the necessary skills and abilities to survive and it's because of my body and care for him over these past months of development. Crazy! I hope to just be able to nurture and support him in his life after birth, giving him a positive, loving, and safe world to grow in. Can't wait to be a mom and dad along with Russ. He's going to be amazing and I can't wait to see him realize his talents and abilities too! Love it!
