Pregnancy is such an awesome, amazingly scary time. Leading up to every doctor's appointment I'm a nervous wreck, wondering and hoping things are going accordingly.
Over the weekend, we were driving to a friend's birthday celebration and the peanut literally felt like she was going to fall out of me. Her kicks were so low and so intense it made me uncomfortable. Of course, I did the worse thing I could do and I googled pelvic pressure. Immediately, I see posts about people with incompetent cervix's who experienced said pressure before their baby was delivered extremely early. I go into a tail spin convinced this is happening to me. Particularly because I was experiencing the most uncomfortable back ache I've ever had earlier in the day. Sunday I laid around most of the day debating on calling the doctor. I gained some sense of reality and waiting until Monday morning. The doctor had me come in and after a quick check up, she told me everything was fine. The pressure is because my pelvic area is so small (shocker, I'm 4'11").
I had an anatomy scan today where they measure her to make sure everything is on par. She gave the doctor's quite a treat as she wouldn't sit still. The tech spent more time chasing her around then measuring her. The doctor came in and reviewed the pictures and measurements and I'm measuring right on 20 weeks, which I am today. I was thrilled to hear she is developing spot on as I've still only put on 6-7lbs and was kind of nervous. I feel a lot better after hearing so far so good.
Her bedding has been ordered and my dad is coming this weekend to paint her room. It's unreal how quick the past 5 months have gone. Hopefully the next 5 go just as quickly. I cannot wait to meet the little peanut that is wiggling around so much in there!
