Belly Update
Tuesday morning we had another doctor’s appointment. My OB was on vacation so we saw another doctor in the practice. Her nurse called us back in the office. She said “Whoa!” when I stood up. She said she didn’t remember my belly “popping out” as far at the last visit. Andy and I haven’t really noticed much of a difference the last few weeks in my size. I’ve been measuring a little bigger than average, but within range.
The doctor came to measure my belly and I was still within range. She asked if I had felt any contractions and I told her no, that I thought I might have because my belly had been getting hard, but it was just the head or butt pushing against my ribs. I pulled up my shirt and laid back to have her check the heartbeat. When she saw my bare belly she said, “You are so lopsided!” She did confirm though that the head was down and it was the baby’s butt sticking out of my right side.
I tried to take a picture this morning to show how the baby favors my right side. This is the best I could do. Sometimes its even more exaggerated. Maybe I’ll catch a better shot another time but I think its pretty obvious. And no, I haven’t seen my feet or even my belly button in a while.

Baby Barnett likes my right side as well but then it will sink away when I spank it (j/k) but it does more and it freaks Lance out cause I have him feel how hard it is and then when it moves it feels like my belly again. I think it’s awesome, lol.

I can see a bit of lopsidedness, but it is not noticeable when you stand up. I think you (Baby Z) have been growing—that’s a good thing:) Nice that you are still within range for your time—countdown…. XOX
