Week 35 - Ready and set!


5 weeks to go!

This week marks the final class in Todd and my baby preparation course schedule. Tuesday night we attended "Labor Skills". We learned all about coping strategies that we can leverage to help manage pain during the various stages of the labor process. There were a couple funny moments (hee hee hooooooo-ing in each others faces), but all in all, I would say we learned some very helpful tips and tricks.

We also had a doctor appointment this week. Baby continues to measure on track (my belly is at 36.5) and is still head down - good boy! He was kicking and really working up a sweat during the exam. Our doctor had to wait for him to calm down to get an accurate heart rate. Luckily, he took a timeout and gave a healthy heart rate reading of 156 beats/minute. I wonder if this is an indication of how active he will be as a baby and kid?
