35 week doctor visit



Today was our 35 week dr. visit and as always I get a little nervous. I just want the little guy to be ok. For the first time I jotted down questions to ask the dr. since I had so many! The different thing about today's visit was that Don was able to come with me! Due to him having to be away he has only been able to come to one other visit with me and I always look at other pregnant ladies in the waiting room with their husbands, wishing that was me. Well today it was and it felt good!


I was able to see a dr. that I saw first at the Naval Hospital, so I was happy about that. She answered all my questions and her answers were, "yes, that is normal." I asked her if she thought his head was down and she said I'm going to go get an ultrasound machine and we're going to check. We were so excited since we didn't think we would get another one during the pregnancy. His head was definately down. Don asked, "Is his head big?" You have to understand that both sides of the family have larger heads, so it was a fair question, I just didn't expect that question:) She said it looked normal size. She let us see the rest of his body and he was just chilling out, moving around some. It was so cool to see him and how much he has grown from when we found out he was a boy!


When I got back from my walk with Miles today, I opened a present from Sawyer's Uncle John and Aunt Lindsay. They thought it was only appropriate that his coach uncle John should be the first person to give him a pair a Nikes! I have to put a picture of them on here b/c they are so cute and very cool! Can a baby already be spoiled before he's here? Hmmmm....

  1. awwwww did you cry when you saw the little shoes???

    I am so happy Don got to go with you and don't feel bad, my husband is right here and we don't go to every appointment together, he's only been to the ones where there was an ultrasound :)

    How exciting is to see them move and "be" inside your belly, it just makes everything soooo special, doesn't it.

    Happy to hear that all your concerns were answer by a "yes that's normal" Hope that helps you not worry too.

    I LOVE THIS BLOG THING! Don't you?

    Love you girl and Sawyer!
