Diaper Swappers

A few of my favorites (this was Thursday, so I was 32w4d then)

Eating her feet

Still a girl. Poor husband o' mine!

Best profile we could get. Judging from this, she looks like a perfect mox of my first 2 girls Keira and Piper (they are 5 and 3)

She is breech and wedged WAYYYYYY up under my ribcage with her face planted into my placenta, so here is a good shot of her feet that are constantly stepping on my bladder/cervix!

This one was fascinating because she kept grabbing her umbilical cord and yanking on it. You can see the cord and her outstretched fingers, waiting like a venus fly trap!

The cord entanglement always worries me because my 2nd daughter was born with a hospital record setting FIVE NUCHAL loops around her neck and so since this baby is always flipping head up and then head down, I always wonder if she is getting tangled up as well. So far it looks like she is not wrapped up, but there is still 6 weeks for that to happen. Piper stopped moving at 36 weeks and that's when I think her cord was tangled too much for her to move anymore. Several biophysicals and NST's later, she never had any decels so they let the pregnancy keep on going and she was born completely healthy by section. If that had been a vaginal homebirth, things could have been MUCH different. She was a tiny 6 pounds even at birth and later (because of the cord) diagnosed with IUGR because the nutrients likely couldn't get to her through all the loops and knots. Just thankful she was getting enough oxygen in the cord!

My first was 6lbs 2 oz, second was 6lbs even and they predict Holland is about 4lbs 9oz right now, meaning she could be nearly 8 pounds at birth. I know those weights can be off by a half a pound or so, but she definitely looks much chunkier than my first 2 girls! Look at those CHEEKS!

Here is the rest of the gallery, if you want to see them:
