It is amazing to feel the kicks/punches/movement getting stronger and more often over the last week. My husband has been able to feel him moving a couple more times. Although sometimes it feels like he is jabbing something into my side, so i poke at it until it moves away.
My mom is planning my baby shower for the 5th of March and I am really looking forward to it. We also signed up for our first class - prepared childbirth. Which is a very long class 6.5 hours, but should go over most of the basics. Then i will just need to sign up for some of the other ones (breastfeeding, infant cpr and safety, baby care basics). I am going to try to get the grandparents to go to a new grandparents class too, as things have changed since they last had kids and ours will be the first grandchildren.
I get to do the glucose screening today before my appointment, hopefully it comes up negative for gestational diabetes. I also need to discuss the results of my cholesterol screening, since it was quite high. Hopefully it is not something that will affect the baby.
Other than that, just taking it one day at a time. Can't believe I am now under 100 days until my due date!
