27 weeks (10 till fullterm!)

Today I had a Dr. appointment, it was great, baby's heartbeat was 166, he was active and moving, Dr. told me not to worry about movement as I told her I was freaking out, my blood pressure was good, and everything else was great elhamd le Allah (thank God) I love hearing his racing heartbeat, it makes me so happy. Next appointment is in two weeks, it's bi-monthly now yaay, I love going to the Dr. to get the reassurance that everything is going fine, and now I get to do that twice a month :D

Emotions: Just very glad to be in month 7, the last trimester, almost over I hope, I'm super excited, and super scared, if I don't feel him move when I get up I stay worried till I do! And some thoughts about the delivery gets me scared, I want to pack my bag but waiting to buy my hospital robe and baby detergent so that I can wash his clothes. Mama will be here soon isA. I received my 10% discount coupon from babies r us, so now I can go buy the stuff I have on my registry, can't wait till we do that, hopefully next month. Overall I'm very anxious, excited and scared, but hoping for the best. pray for us :)
