6 Month Checkup

I had my 6 month checkup this morning and was able to hear our little boy's heartbeat at 147bpm. Sonogram shows that he is on the large side, in the 91% for growth! Dr said that we'll watch closely to make sure he doesn't get too big too fast. My blood pressure is also looking great, 128/68. I was a little concerned since over the last few weeks I've noticed my resting heartrate was higher than normal. I've only gained 2 pounds so far, which has me thinking that I will put on most of my weight during the last trimester. Dr said to be watching for pre-term labor signs. I had to laugh for a minute and remind the Dr that I never had contractions or went into labor with Asher, so I wasn't real sure to look for! Over all, Baby and I are doing great. Next appointment on November 30th. Only 125 more days to go!!
