5 Weeks....say what???

So today I had my 33 week check-up. I now go once a week to get a NST, which is a Non Stress Test. Because I had bleeding and I have high blood pressure, they check to make sure Bradyn's heart rate is healthy and he isnt under stress. Today, he sounded awesome and was punching the machine as usual. I love when he does that...it is like he is saying...listen I am in here, I am growing and my heart is pumping...now leave me alone so I can sleep!!! My blood pressure ofcourse was up again, so the doc said I need to really watch it. It usually goes down while I am there, so that is a good thing. I am on meds, and instead of uping the meds, he said if it goes up, and stays up, he will deliver! Which right now is early, however, I do feel a little safe in knowing that he is only4 weeks off of being full term, and the doc said that he sounds very healthy. So, I will do what I can to keep the blood pressure low.

Now, since I have high blood pressure, he will not let me go any further than 38 weeks, which means that Bradyn will makes his healthy debut the first week of September. Now, if any of you remember, my brothers birthday is September 2. So, Uncle Joe Joe might have to share his big day...which honestly...I think he will be honored...even though he teases about it! So, we are now down to 5 weeks!!! I cant wait to hold my healthy baby boy in my arms and just give him kisses! He has been breech, and we find out this week if he has turned. If not, then they will scedule a C-Section, otherwise I will be induced. So, we are praying for a healthy 5 weeks of pregnancy and a healthy delivery!

Here is a sneak peak at Bradyn's room!!!! Bob has done such an awesome job!
