My Milestones & Events

Baby Dropped
Was still measuring 36 weeks at the 37 week appt. Dr said its because baby's head is engaged and uterus is starting at a lower point so there is a less measurable distance from the top of the uterus to the pubic bone.

Told My Boss About My Pregnancy
She cried and hugged me 3 times. She is really happy for us (my hubby works here too). I feel a huge huge huge sigh of relief. I was a little worried to tell her. She said it's been a long time coming and couldn't be happier for us.
