30 Weeks

We are down to the last 10 weeks of the pregnancy and everything is looking good. I had a doctor appointment this past Friday and she said all my numbers were looking great and matching up with what the "chart" says. My stomach from top to bottom is 30 centimeters and will gain another 10 centimeters by end.  Apparently I am supposed to gain 1 centimeter a week.  My blood pressure and weight look good and the baby's heart rate looked great at 145.  She says I am having an easy pregnancy...uhm...ok!  I will let her believe that. ;) 

My doctor has asked me to start counting kicks to make sure everything continues to go ok. Of course I asked her what she meant and  she informed me that twice a day for an hour I need to count his movement as I should feel him 4-6 times per hour.  Well, as of right now that is not even a problem because I feel him move 4-6 times in 5 minutes. He is pretty active from 9am - 10am where I swear he is throwing a party for one in my belly.  Then from 10am - noon he is still moving, but not a lot.  He will then move here and there in the afternoon, but then throw another party from 9pm - 10pm. So far (knock on wood) he has not woken me up in the middle of the night with his movement.  I have not had any problems sleeping (knock on wood) and it may be because I am a heavy sleeper or Fred already understands how his mommy cherishes her sleep and he is being a good little boy as to not disturb me.  :)  Either way I am enjoying my sleep while I can.
