I Love Birthday Parties!
Madison was invited to a birthday party yesterday. It was held at the gymnastics center close to our house. Who wouldn’t want ten 3-5 year olds running around? A bunch of us moms stayed and compared everything from jobs to husbands to anti-aging advice. That’s not why I love this party though. It went from 4:30 – 6:30. We got home around 7. Madison did her normal act like a crazy kid and bounce off the walls thing she normally does. Then about 7:30, she sat on Bill’s lap and was sleeping in less than five minutes. This is the same kid we fight with every night to go to bed. Needless to say, it was really nice. So, if anyone else wants to invite us to a kid party, we are so there!
Schedule?
We have interesting situation going on with Will. For the last couple of days, he has been completely off. It use to be that he would have around 4 oz of breastmilk about every 2 – 3 hours. The last two days he eats an ounce or two (or three sometimes!) then falls asleep. This goes on all day. He actually has been eating more because of this.
I know you are saying well then make him eat the whole bottle. Wake him up. I can’t do that though. He has baby reflux, so I end up wearing it if we overfeed him (I end up wearing it even when he isn’t overfed). I have just let him do this thing, but I was wondering if anyone had some insight into this.
36 weeks pregnant
I am almost there. I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, so we’ll see what he says. I think I will be taken off my bedrest and driving restriction and drugs. This is the final stretch now.
From Babycenter:
Your baby is gaining about an ounce a day. She now weighs almost 6 pounds and is a little less than 19 inches long. She’s shedding most of the downy hair that covered her body, as well as the vernix caseosa. At the end of this week, your baby will be considered full-term. (Babies born between 37 and 42 weeks are considered full-term.) Most likely she’s in a head-down position by now, which is optimal for a smooth delivery, but if she isn’t head-down next week, your provider may suggest scheduling an external cephalic version, where your practitioner will try to turn your baby by pushing on the outside of your belly.
