10 Weeks to go!

I can not believe we are 30 weeks along! Time has flown by. Madison and I had a doctor's appointment on Friday and everything is looking great! She had a heartbeat of 140 and no  surprise is measuring small. Granted Joe and I are only 5'5" and I've only gained 12 pounds so she isn't going to be a huge baby. We are going for an ultrasound to check on her weight and measurements on Tuesday. I was so relieved to hear she is doing great after my gym episode on Sunday!


Bet you want to know what happened on Sunday?  Well.... In the morning I did my yoga video, napped, and went to the gym for my normal 4 mile inclined power walk. Thirty-five minutes in I became dizzy and had a pain in my lower tummy. After getting off the machine and sitting and drinking my water for 15 minutes I felt better and went to find Joe to do some weights. Well when I got home, my lower tummy was having some serious discomforts. Luckily after drinking some more water and taking Tylenol I finally felt better! Nothing like a scare to tell you to slow down. I took a week off the gym and thanks to my doctor's encouragement and reassurance went back today- still hitting my 4 miles and 450 calorie goal but at a slightly slower pace and while drinking a lot more water!. 


This week we are looking forward to the ultrasound and seeing our little busy bee for the last time before being able to hold her! I hope she gains a good amount of weight these last 10 weeks. I keep telling her to slow down and nap instead of being a busy bee all day. But I don't listen so why would I expect her to?  Lately she has been kicking and punching at the same time- My poor belly doesn't know which way it is being pulled!. 


Hopefully we'll have some great ultrasound pictures to share this week!
