Pregnancy: Week 34 Update

Brooklyn and I are continuing to grow and grow. We found out yesterday that she is approximately 5 lbs 15 oz. That means she could be as big as 9 lbs in 6 weeks. Dr. R will check again in a couple of weeks. If I haven't mentioned this before, the reason why we are concerned about her weight is due to the fact that delivery could be tough if she is any bigger than Makena. Dr. R also said her tummy is larger in proportion to her head, which might indicate her shoulders are bigger too. There is good news. She looks perfectly healthy and is head down. Right now our prayer is that Miss Brooklyn and my body are ready before she becomes too big and it is very clear that is the case. She continues to be my little mover and shaker even though I can tell she is getting squished.

As far as my body goes, I have had some groin and lower back pain. I told Stephanie a week ago that I hadn't had any swelling and the next day I has some in my right ankle. I have only had one other day with any swelling but it is still pretty mild and tends to be just in my right ankle which is the ankle I broke a few years ago. Doing great over all!

Hopefully I'll have some pics soon.
