Imgur is messing around again but I was able to get the latest ultrasound pic up:
He is facing the camera and has spiky hair. lol
my work service is terrible so probably my work is to blame. have to remember to do it at home!
Baby boy is 6 lb 11 oz apparently already, i’m 36 weeks on Friday! yikes! I’m glad I didn’t buy a ton of newborn clothes and diapers but I’m a little sad that some of the stuff might not get much wear! He is perfect otherwise. Lots of practice breathing, organs look great. Big long legs (91 percentile) and big head (91 percentile), which is chris and me, respectively. He’s just under 80 percentile. (Was 61 last time I believe). So wow, that’s a big change in a month. if the trend continues, maybe I might be going another week earlier? I will ask obgyn today what she thinks. I’m pretty happy with my 39 week induction plan- for medical reasons (gestational diabetes, but i’m also reading that for ivf there are more placenta issues so it might be safer to go sooner for that as well, some docs apparently do 38 weeks for that).
I worked on the nursery art this weekend so we will be ready to hang stuff this coming weekend. And I’ll probably pack my hospital bag tonight- honestly I have had all the stuff ready to go in my suitcase for about 3 weeks but my husband was stalling on getting the suitcase out of the attic, but he has been working like almost everyday for a few weeks so I don’t blame him!
I am literally nodding off at my desk today so I’m thinking I’m cutting back on work soon. I’ve been doing 3-4 days in person (probably doing 3 in person this week) and the rest remote. I’m planning to keep working 5 days a week up until delivery, but my boss approved me to go remote when i need to. Next week I might switch to two days in person. Which honestly I think is probably my ideal after baby too but we are supposed to work 4 a week in person despite some of us (def me) having almost no appts in person (on my busiest week this semester I had like 4 in person which I could easily fit into 1 day a week).
Okay, hopefully more pictures soon!

It's amazing- the face pictures on the ultrasounds this far along look about as good to me as those 3d/4d ones! My husband wasn't really interested in going to any since he has done it all before and never thought they were that great (plus he works nights so it's a big pain for him to attend appts esp since all my doctors are an hour or an hour and 15 from home) but he came to the anatomy scan and he was amazed, even compared to when his youngest was a baby 8 years ago, it had come a long way, and it's like watching your baby on a video! Amazing!
