Liam Update plus BH question

 I had another U/S today and Liam is measuring at 4lb 1oz. He is gaining weight right on track. Last U/S at 29 weeks he was 2lb 15oz. They expect him to be 6lbs and a few oz by D Day. Happily he is in the head down position though that means he is kicking up into my diaphram. You can see my whole stomach twitch and dance when he is active. I have called it the Liam Alien Show. It looks like a scene from the movie Aliens.

I am tired of being preggers but counting the good things to stay positive. 8 more weeks!! I had my joint baby shower with my best friend (who is 3 weeks behind me) yesterday and it was awesome. I had great family and friends and got to see people I haven't seen in years.

One question I forgot to ask my OB.. I have not had any braxton hicks yet.. is that normal to not have felt anything yet? It's my first baby.

I didn't feel a thing with my first. I went from nothing to two weeks of non productive contractions (every 5 minutesfor at least a minute...I was ready to kill someone lol)

Yeah it is awesome and no one believes us when we say it wasnt planned that way! She is having another girl and we tease that Liam is betrothed to both of her girls. We just have to make sure we don't go the same week because we had to go to different hospitals. We are already planning the awesome maternity leave of watching True Blood together.

The shower was great! I got so much and already used the gift cards to get more stuff. It is daunting that i still need alot more stuff. Not that I mind shopping! ^.^

Was told by my OB that it's normal to not feel BH with the first.  BE GLAD!!

For the last few days my BH is contracting in my back.  I feel like I'm having horrible period cramps, will **** myself, & want to rip my back & hips out through my skin all at the same time.  They wake me up at night & sometimes last for up to 2 minutes!  All that to only dilate 1cm!  UGH!  I HATE BH!

On a more positive note... glad you had a great shower!
