Today I had my 33 week appointment. All looks great, he is measuring a little small, he is almost 4 1/2 pounds. According to babycenter.com at 33 weeks they are a little over 4 1/2 pounds so he really isn't that small!
Just to quickly update from my last post about the cord insertion, I talked with my doctor and she was not too worried. She said that there is more likely a chance of rupture when the cord is close to the cervix. It's called vasa previa. Once you start dilating and your cervix gets larger, that is when it could rupture the cord. Since mine is not close, she didn't seem worried and told me to let her worry about the labor part. She said that once I arrive at the hospital I will get an IV right away in case of an emergency C-section, but for now not to worry. But that's easy for her to say!

Thanks for the update! Still keeping you in my thoughts!
Hate that I had to miss the play date. We are still battling some of the illness over here!, but it is starting to get better. Slowly, but surely!
We can still get together though...maybe in a few weeks....or I definitely want to meet baby boy Snider when he gets here!
I cannot wait! Love the Reagan comment, such a sweetie!
