Delay in posting

I had a wonderful baby shower on Sunday and I'm slacking on posting info and pictures about it due to a nasty head cold!  I promise, details will be posted soon!  The good news is that the baby is super active right now, even with me being sick so that's one thing I don't have to worry about.  Ok, back to bed...

30 Week Ultrasound

So, because I'm a "mature" mother-to-be, I got to have a 30 week ultrasound to be sure all is progressing well with the munchkin.  The doctor says that everything is looking good, baby is head down and they are estimating that the baby weighs 3 lbs and 9 ounces already!  I'll probably be returning to their office for another ultrasound or two to watch the baby's size.  I have to start monitoring my blood sugar, and with this being an issue the baby could grow a little too big too quickly, so we'll be watching it.  Other than that all is well, the little bugger seems to like practicing it's Riverdance routine on my ribs!  10 more weeks to go!

Pregnancy exemptions

I was taking my CPR renewal class tonight and thought it was nice that I was exempt from doing the Heimlich Maneuver on the mannequin simply because I was pregnant.  This got me to thinking about the other pregnancy exemptions I get to take advantage of, like shoveling!  Then, because of the snow on the ground and its slippery nature, I do believe I'm exempt from dog doody pick-up!  Sorry Kevin.

I'll have a new baby update post next week, after our 30 week ultrasound.  Stay tuned...
