30 weeks along...9.5 and counting

Well we had a doctor's appointment last week and he said everything is going great! I have been getting crampy every now and then which he said is normal. He said I'll be feeling the braxton hicks contractions more and more. But wow are those cramps a reminder of how close we are getting! My uterus is the size it should be and he also checked her position. The last time he checked she was breech but luckily she has turned to the correct position! Her head is using my bladder as a pillow and her back is usually to my right. I figured that is probably the reason it is more comfortable for me to sleep on my right side. So that leaves her arms and legs to my left where she can kick and punch all day! No wonder my left side is tender! I get tired a lot quicker than I usually do and have to use the restroom even more than before. A couple of weeks ago I was able to work 7 hours and feel alright by the end of the shift, but now after 4 hours of working I'm ready to call it quits! We'll see how long I can last. It's amazing how quickly my body changes with her growth! Here is a picture of my big belly at the pool for everyone to enjoy!
