I had another ultrasound today. Ella was very squirmy, even though she has NO room to move! Her knees were smooched to her chest. We got a new photo, but it's a bit blurry...the tech said she had her fingers resting on her forehead=) My cervix measured shorted today at 3.5. In two weeks we have one last ultrasound that we know of and it will be in 3D. The whole family will be attending this one and we are all quite excited=) Ella is super cute!

Today i had an OB appointment. They did my glucose screen and drew my blood. I'm not worried about it and know i'll pass with flying colors=) My blood pressure was wonderful at 92/62 and i have no swelling this week. Surprising for this hot weather we are having, yesterday was 86 degrees. Ella's heart beat was great at 150:) Next monday i'll have another ultrasound/cervical length and then two weeks later we have another but it will be in 3D! 13 more weeks and i can't wait to hold Ella<3

Today i had another ultrasound/cervical length. Ella has been VERY active! I have felt some jabbing pain on my right lower belly and had a feeling it was her elbow, because every time i push there Ella moves over=) The ultrasound tech confirmed that in fact it's her shoulder and said, "that must be her comfy spot." LOL Ella's heart beat was 150 and my cervix measured longer at 4 cm....wonderful news! 14 more weeks and she'll be in my arms, i'm so excited! I have one more cervical length in 2 weeks and then 2 weeks from then i'll have my BIG 30 week 3D ultrasound and get to find out how much she weighs. Here are 2 photo's form today:

Today was our 6th ultrasound=) I got Megan and Torin out of school early and Daddy met us on the door step as we left! It was Meg and T's 1st time seeing Ella. She was squirming so much that everyone got to see my belly move. Ella is head down now and looks wonderful and getting chubby<3 My cervix actually measured longer today at 3.5, so that was good news! Here are some photo's from today:

I had my 5rd ultrasound yesterday for my every 2 week cervical length. The ultrasound tech said that Ella is folded in half. I said yes she is laying sideways and she agreed saying i have a LOT of baby head on my let side. The doc then examined me and said that this is good b/c she is not putting pressure on my cervix, but the reason for my discomfort as the top of my uterus is free floating amniotic fluid. I hope she spreads out soon, she is so LOW! They gave me one photo, but she was moving so her face is a bit blurred, but it also shows her knee and foot=) I love watching her grow. They said at my 30 week ultrasound they will give me a 3D ultrasound, which is very exciting b/c my hubby and 4 children will be present=) Here is her most recent pic:
