34.5 weeks

i went in for a regular ob appointment today
and was asked about my contractions
which i have a lot of
so they aren't normal but...i'm used to them
i was sent to the hospital to be monitored
and to get an ultrasound because i'm measuring big
they don't like you to have more than 
4 contractions in an hour
but i was having up to 12 an hour
so i'm on medication for it now
and i got an ultrasound
showing our new due date
it's a compromise of the old two
july 1st
and the baby is just over 5 pounds
i do have a lot of amniotic fluid which might be why i'm measuring big
seeing the baby was like christmas morning
she looks so pretty
just like hazel
but with chubby cheeks
and HAIR!
i even got to see her yawn
it was so precious

Seriously, when I'm pregnant I am going to H&M to get that shirt. I love it.

OOo! An ultrasound so late in your pregnancy WOULD be awesome! I can't believe you could see her hair :D How exciting!!

How fun, not the contractions, but seeing your little girl. We might have to plan a road trip. Hang in there!

Rachael you are so pretty even pregnant! My friend Erica had an ultrasound and showed me what the dr said was hair. I didn't really think that it could all be hair, but when she was born, no joke, she had about three inches of hair. It was crazy! It's amazing what you can see in an ultrasound!
