35 week appointment

Last Friday I had my 35 week appointment, and as usual (thankfully) things are looking great. As I mentioned after my last appointment, my weight gain had been very minimal. I was excited about that until I got to this past appointment, and had hardly gained anything AGAIN. When I stepped on the scale and saw that it was barely higher than the last time, I actually started to get pretty nervous. The first thing that came to my mind was that Anderson was not growing or getting enough nutrients to keep him growing. From the time I had my weight checked to the time I actually saw the doctor was about 30 minutes, and I was a nervous wreck! I just wanted to get in there so she could measure my belly to see how the baby was growing. Well, sure enough, he measured 34 cm. Right on target. Maybe he is just a leaner baby than Camden was. Maybe he'll be in the 7-pound range in stead of 8 lbs, 10 oz. I sure wouldn't mind if that was the case. :) Anderson had also been very active right before I went into the examination room, so when they checked his heartbeat it was in the upper 160s as opposed to his usual 130-140s. I thought that was neat...he had just gotten a workout! I go back in two weeks, then after that I start my every-week appointments. Cannot believe it's already almost to that point. I am so ready though!
