10 Days To Go....Week 39

Carrie had another check up. Everything still is going well...iron levels are awesome, the baby only gained a few ounces (much to Carrie's relief), and both girls are healthy. While on the fetal monitor, the baby apparently was sleeping and it took a minute to get her to a good position to pick up her heartbeat. This past week, Carrie has been getting more frequent Braxton Hicks contractions. It's amazing how hard her belly gets! At least one of these was picked up on the monitor. Unfortunately, it's pretty cramped in there....we didn't even get to see her face very well in the office.
