    We arrived home last night after midnight and woke up early this morning to go to an appointment with my midwife. Punky and Spunky had to come with me, but, fortunately, they love my midwife.  (Although, on the way there, Punky re-affirmed his hatred for Grammy’s doctors when he told me that he likes my doctor, but hates Grammy’s.  He loves his Grammy and is incredibly protective of her.)

    Pregnancy and Baby #3 33-34 Week Stats:

    • BP: 116/82
    • Iron: 11.7 – still going down a little bit.  I am going to try even harder to eat things rich in iron since the iron supplements make me so sick.  Any tips?
    • Baby head down and in pelvis
    • Measuring exactly where I should be (he was measuring bigger before just because he was not in position)
    • Baby’s heart rate: 142
    • Lots of swelling in my feet and ankles
    • Braxton Hicks all the time, especially when walking a lot
    • still vomiting once in a while- it usually happens when I am really tired
    • Baby #3 is moving around A LOT
