27 Weeks

We had an OB appt this week! It was the shortest one we’ve had, only 45 minutes. Dr. Salama was wonderful as always. I’ve gained a total of 8 pounds, and it had been all in the past month. So hopefully 8-10 pounds a month won’t be a pattern for me :) Anyways, Emily is already HEAD DOWN! Dr Salama guided Danny to feel her little head and he was SO excited! He said everything looks amazing, and at my next appt we will get a sonogram and then he will start seeing me every 2 weeks. Ahhhh, it’s almost time!
