Ten weeks left!!!!!!

Finally made it to the official countdown and could not be more excited! Today I am 30 weeks exactly it really has just flown by. My little boy is doing so good and growing strong he has started to move around so much more and I am definitely getting those kicks to the ribs I always heard about. We went this Saturday and got a 3D ultrasound and it was the most amazing thing ever to see his sweet little face like that. I almost felt like I cheated and peeked on him before we were supposed to ha ha but he looks so much like my husband it just made it so much more real. We also noticed his cord was wrapped around the back of his neck which honestly scared the hell out of me. The person who did the ultrasound is not a certified doctor or anything but did try to say not to worry and that it is really common. So of course I went home and went at it with doctor google. Turns out this is very common and happens in about 30% of pregnancies. Just something new I learn about everyday it seems but still even with that knowledge all I could think about was that cord going around the back of his neck and it was not even around the front of his neck but more looks like he was wearing it like a necklace that comes down in the front. So today I went to my midwifes and let them know my concerns and thankfully they also said they see this all the time and they deliver babies everyday with the cords sometimes wrapped even three times so while this did make me feel better I was still worried. They set me up with a peri thank goodness just to do a follow up and check blood flow to be positive all is well. It will be nice to get that reassurance she said she is mostly doing this for me to be at peace then because she is worried about anything but after all we went through she said she understands being scared about it. So Friday is that appointment then we took a few days off from work to go on a nice last time vacation I am not sure where yet but we do want to go do something one last time before this sweet little boy gets here. I cant believe time is going so fast now I cant wait to meet him and see his little face for reals. We pretty much have everything we need and his room is pretty well done. I just have to start to pack the hospital bag here and there and that just blows me away. We have only 70 days left until the due date I hope he decides to come a little early so we wont be in the hospital for Thanksgiving but whenever he decides to come im okay with. The holidays are going to be so much better I get so excited seeing all of the fall stuff just knowing that its getting closer and closer to when he will come.
