36 week check up

So I went to the Dr. today and everything looks great! First, we started with the ultrasound and got to watch him practice his breathing :) it was so cute to see. The tech measured the fluid and said all looked wonderful. (I was worried about that because I am weird and have been watching those maternity shows and I recently saw one where a woman's water broke and she did not know it, it was causing problems for her baby and his kidneys started to shut down. So I did not sleep after watching that)... Also, She measured Chase and said that he is a healthy 6lbs and 7 oz boy!!!

The Dr. Said everything is "Super" and that I should not expect to have Chase early although it could happen she see nothing to feel like it will.
I was so excited when they weighed me because I did not gain any weight between visits! I have only gained a total of 28-30 lbs depending on water!
I now have to go to the Dr. weekly, man time zooms by I feel like I just found out we were pregnant!!!
The Dr said that my new instructions are to rest a little more because my pelvis is causing me some problems and she said "You are not allowed to watch anymore Maternity shows, Nothing good can come from it."

Here are a couple pics of me. I feel huge!
