30 Weeks

The time goes by faster with every week and every day. We went to see Dr Greenburg again today for my 30 week visit. Mitch was able to come with me today and hear Mia's heart beat. It was very special because he has not been able to go with me to any of my appointments since 20 weeks. Mia's heart beat was a little slow today because she was sleeping but still at 130 beats per minute which is great. I was happy to learn I didn't gain any weight in the last 2 weeks but Dr Geenburg said I needed to gain at least a little in the next 2 weeks for him to be happy with my progress. I don't mind gaining weight for the baby at all it's eating all the food it takes to gain the weight when there is so little room left in my stomach.

Mia is growing steadily, her movements are all over the place and she packs quite a punch these days. I have my second 4D ultrasound scheduled in just over 2 weeks. I can't wait to see how much she has grown in the 10 weeks since we last saw her. I get a special treat at this next ultrasound my grandma is flying in from Mississippi to come to my baby shower on November 1st and she will still be here to come to the ultrasound with us. This is very special since she lives so far away. I'm so happy she can be a part of this pregnancy and I will have picture to show Mia one day that her Great Grandma loved her so much she came a long way just to be here to help celebrate her pending arrival into this world.
