32 weeks
Today was a morning full of appointments. The first one was my monthly prenatal appointment. Peanut’s heart sounds strong and I’ve gained about 7 pounds. The next one was the 32-week ultrasound at UCSF. Turns out Peanut is a whopping 5 lbs 4 oz, which places him at the 75th percentile. The doctor at the hospital wasn’t concerned and said that measurements can be off by a pound in either direction. But according to the measurements, he’s looking more like a 34-weeker instead of a 32-weeker. So, I emailed my primary doctor to see if there was anything I needed to do differently. We got a good 3D picture of his face this time around and he’s got some massive cheeks and his nose was smushed.
We also got a picture of his hand with all five fingers showing. So cute!
I was afraid he would be sunny-side up (facing out) but today he was head down and facing toward my right with his spine along my left side. I also got confirmation of the knees and feet that have been kicking me toward the top of my belly.
