Weekly Doctor Visits!

Good news Tif, you get to see the doctor once a week now! Wooohoo!

As much as we love the doctor, Tif is not looking forward to seeing her every Thursday. This week there was good news, bad news, and ugly news that became great news, although none of it was really that bad.

The good news was Tif has grown from the other week so we don't need to have another 3D ultrasound, at least not yet. Tif hadn't grown the other week and we just wanted to make sure that the baby was still growing, but it all was great.

The bad news was the baby has not turned yet so Tif has to do these funky exercises to try to get him to turn around. At this point in the pregnancy, 94% of babies have gone head down and Tif has to now lay down with her butt up on some pillows and a hot and cold pack to coax him away from the cold and toward the heat to lay head down. He started to turn a bit tonight, but didn't go all the way around. We'll just have to give it some more time.

The ugly news was that Tif had to get her blood drawn to check her iron levels, (updated: iron levels are fine!) and you know what blood draws mean: Si Senor for dinner!
