The Big 3-0

30 weeks that is! I cannot believe I am 30 weeks pregnant. Do you know what this means? It means that in 10 weeks or less little Luca will be making his grand appearance. Santi and I are getting so excited. The only bad thing is that the closer Luca's arrival gets, the harder it gets to focus at work. I have four more weeks of school to survive, and then I am free to sit around, relax, and wait (not so patiently) for his arrival. I know technically I wasn't suppose to do a pregnancy post this weekend, but I couldn't help but share my excitement about reaching 30 weeks.
We had a doctor's appointment on Wednesday and Luca's heart rate was good, my weight was right on track, and she was surprised I am not swollen yet now that the temperatures here are above 90 every day. We also found out that I am measuring about a week behind, but she didn't seem too concerned. She said that the fundal measurements (literally done with a tape measure) are not the most accurate and that a growth ultrasound would be a better indicator of his size and growth. So, I have an ultrasound scheduled along with another appointment for May 11th. I am kind of nervous about measuring "small" as she said, and I hope that the ultrasound shows that he has caught up. We might just have a little peanut, which I am okay with, as long as he is healthy. No pregnancy survey this weekend...but here's a belly shot for your time!

Jen...yes I can squeeze in it:) I will probably take one in that shirt next weekend. I was trying to take pics in different outfits too because the orange shirt isn't so flattering anymore! But I am going to keep using it until the end so I can have some good comparisons!
