Week 36

Well, I guess I skipped a whole month! November was quite an eventful month. I got a head cold, and my heart started racing very badly. So I went to my doctor, who referred me to a cardiologist...that's always scary when you're only 29 years old. The forms I filled out in the beginning actually asked where I retired from! To make a long story short, after an EKG, Echo, blood work, and a 24 hour heart monitor, they don't know what's wrong. So their conclusion: I'm pregnant. Awesome. My OB is mildly concerned, but not too bad. They will just keep an eye on it when I go into labor.

So that said, I've been exhausted! My heart rate when I'm sleeping is between 90-120 bpm. So I literally have been running a marathon pretty much nonstop. But otherwise, everything with baby is going just great! Baby is strong, normal heartbeat thankfully, moving a ton even still, and ready to go! Head is down, baby has dropped, and next week they start to check to see if I'm dilated. I can't believe how close we are!!! Nursery is almost finished, we got our glider put together yesterday, and it's looking good and cozy in here. We'll try to post some belly pictures this weekend. My little turkey timer popped Thanksgiving week appropriately enough! So stay tuned...there is more to come!

  1. Aww... I love that your belly button popped! I figured it would. Take a picture of it, because it will never look the same ever again! Also, I'm still betting Baby H. is a girl.

  2. I love you Miss Turkey Belly! I will be glad when this baby is born and your heart goes back to normal. I don't like this racing stuff even when you're sleeping!
    I think it's a boy. :D
