[It's a twofer! I haven't blogged as much as I meant to due to some tech issues.]
I went to my 32ish week appointment. My funeral measurement (pelvic bone to top of uterus) has been 4 cm/weeks greater than expected so a growth scan was ordered. Turns out I have a lot of fluid. (Baby is **estimated** to weigh 4lbs 6oz right now. It's within a pound of it's papa's birth weight. ) This is called polyhydramnios. The main concern is early labor. It makes me wonder if this is why the Mechanic was a touch early. Anywho, enjoy this sweet baby face and make a guess on what it will be!
It was hard to catch this pic as baby was waving its arms about. It's a busy bee. On another positive note, the wee one has already wriggled to head position.
The irreverent musings of a slightly crunchy mother of 5-the astronaut, princess, the squirrel, side salad, popcorn-and elementary school teacher. I am a semi-crunchy, slightly attached, cloth diapering, breastfeeding mama.

Enjoy the moments
So I'm abt 33 weeks now. I'm not a big believer in due dates. The doctors said August 14 based on an early ultrasound. To me, that means August 10-24, based on how I birth. This really is the last baby for me. I'm 36 now. That's twice as old as I was for my first. I'm trying to savor every moment.
Last weekend, I did a thing. I took maternity pics. When I was pregnant for the first time, I don't know if maternity pics even existed. [Was Facebook even a thing? I I didn't have that until 2007.] I have so few pics of that pregnancy. This one, there will be lots. These are a few shots Princess took on her iPhone 8 and my S9. They look so amazing-I can't wait to see the professional ones!
