Ok, so, we have been purposely taking my progress pictures in the same shirt. You'll see why later, but the unfortunate thing about doing this is that when you misplace the shirt you use for the pictures… you don't take the pictures…
We have since found the shirt and are now happy to present the Big Belly at Week 34.
In case you are interested… It looks like this baby may not hold on for the full 40 weeks. Last week I started feeling some discomfort. When we went in for our appointment on Friday, we brought it up to the doctor, who wasn't really very concerned. (I'm at the point in pregnancy when discomfort is a pretty normal state of existence.) Well, we had the doctor check and the reason why I'm feeling discomfort is because the baby has dropped and I am dilated to 1.5 cm. He told me to hold off on having the baby for at least 2 more weeks… =) Of course, when I told Susie-Q (my good friend and almost OB in training) she told me to tell this baby there's no hurry. We'll just have to wait and see if s/he is going to be obedient. =)
Don't get too excited! I was 2 centimeters for WEEKS!!!! And then 3 for many days and 4 was the most painful, but a little faster... all with Ria, of course.
