At our 32 week check-up and sonogram we got to see him breath... Very cool surprise! His lungs are going strong and his heart rate is still running normal at 160bpm. Roo checked out in the 89th percentile for growth at 5lbs 5ounces. That's 2+ weeks ahead of schedule. Later that day, Jarrod said, "What if he's bigger than me?" Does every Dad wonder that? My response was, "Ouch, that's gonna hurt!" Check out the ultrasound link for our newest sonogram pictures.
Yesterday, we had out 36 week sonogram which was a test to see if my gestational diabetes diet has paid off. It did! He is now only in the 70th percentile growth at 7lbs 1ounce. That sounds much better to me. We were nervous about needing a c-section or induction due to his big head and large projected size. Looking good now! Kat, my sister, came with us and we all got to see Roo breath and make sucking motions with his lips. Very cute although the pictures look alien-ish still. We also got confirmation that Roo did indeed "drop" so he's getting ready and man my body feels it! Glad I've got some yoga and lamazze techniques up my sleeve.
We also had our OB follow-up today and left feeling confident that we are on track and everything is looking good. Baby has dropped, no dilation, but on track for a normal delivery :)
