33 Weeks

One more week down, 7 more to go. I had a sonogram yesterday and appointment with the doctor today. In the sonogram I was able to see Alexa and how she's positioned. I was pretty sure and the sonogram confirmed that she is head down and her butt is on the right side of my stomach with her legs on the left side. I knew this because my belly feels lopsided. I guess she takes after Mommy because her butt feels pretty big! One interesting thing from the sonogram is that the nurse said it looks like she's got a head full of hair. I guess somehow they can tell this! If only they could tell us the color! She weighs 3lbs 14oz right now and when I met with the doctor today she said that she's actually measuring a little small. They like babies to be in the 50th percentile, but Alexa's only in the 37th percentile, meaning 63% of babies measure larger than her at this stage. The doctor said not to worry for now and they will do another sonogram in 3 weeks to determine if she's made any growth progress. If she hasn't then they will be more concerned, but I'm not going to dwell on the what-ifs. If anything, she might just be a little baby, which hopefully means an easier delivery! I just can't believe we only have 48 more days until we meet our little girl. I haven't really reached the nervous stage yet, just pure excitement for now!
