28 Weeks- Baby Looking Good

28 weeks- My belly is continuing to grow and I am officially getting uncomfortable! 12 more weeks to go!

We had our 28 week check up this week.  Everything looks great. My blood pressure was 110/72 which is the best it has been in years! Who knew pregnancy would make my blood pressure go down?  Baby's heart rate was 141.  I asked the doctor if I can keep on running (more of a waddle/jog) and he said yes. He actually encouraged it!  So I was happy about that.  I am running only 1.7 miles at a 11-12 minute/mile pace, so a nice pace for me.  My back has actually been feeling pretty good too.  I am attributing that to having my hard patients at work discharge home. So no more heavy lifting.   I am getting pretty uncomfortable with my big ol' belly.  I can't sit up to straight or too far back.  Sleeping is getting annoying.  And now I can feel the baby moving pretty much all the time and she loves to kick me or get really wiggly right when I am trying to sleep!  The other exciting thing of the week is that we can now see movement by just looking at my stomach. It is crazy weird! We can also feel her head and we think her knees.  Crazy!  She just needs to cook for about three more months and then she will be here!
