32 weeks.

This picture was taken and added Sunday, February 8th.

I went to the doctor this morning. I was totally wrong about Pierce's position. Well, I was right about him being head down...but he's facing left not right. I guess what I thought was his butt are his knees. He apparently likes to kick behind himself because I always feel his feet on my right side. The doctor said he could feel his head really well. I told Brock I was going to try to feel it when I went home, and he got worried that it was going to hurt Pierce if we squeezed his head too much. I asked Brock if it hurts when his head gets squeezed and he said yes, so I guess I'll be careful with the baby's head in case he takes after Brock...haha. The doctor predicted Pierce will be between 8 and 8.5 lbs at birth. We'll see about that. He said I've gained a little more weight than recommended, but I don't agree. I've weighed myself regularly all along, and I haven't gained as much weight as he says I have. I think it may be because I had lost a few pounds before I went to the doctor for the first time, so they think my starting weight is lower. Either way, I've gained well under 30 lbs so far, and I don't think that's bad at all. I go back in 3 weeks and then I go every 2 weeks after that. Hopefully he can give me an idea next time if he thinks the baby will come earlier or later than my due date. I'm still thinking earlier, but you never know, April 2nd may come and go with no baby. That'd be depressing. I've been hoping he comes by March 28th, so I'll probably be sad after that too if there's no baby yet. I started feeling Pierce's hiccups this week. He gets them just about every day.
