Update

Well we had our 30 week visit today and unlike all other appointments this time this one had bells ringing....

Two weeks ago at my 28 week appointment I had asked several questions about the babies movement. I was told to start "kick count" which I said will not be possible b/c this baby is to laid back to get all that moving going on (just like his or her daddy). I have said since day one that I don't feel a lot of movement. The doctor assured me all was fine and even did an ultrasound to prove that Baby Beasley is moving. He and the ultrasound tech agreed I am just not feeling it b/c of where the baby was positioned. He explained why I felt low movement good enough that my mom and I were comfy with the explanation and went on our way.

Now, today I am on to a new doctor and a new story. I checked in as normal...urine (check), blood (check), blood pressure (check), weight (check), measuring (check), and heart beat (check). All great now to just hear from the doctor then on my way. The doctor today was extremely concerned about Baby Beasleys lack of movement and what I was feeling and stressed that this was or could be an issue. Seeing as I have had no problems I was all alone and could feel my tears building up. He wanted to start running some test to make sure all was good so back to the ultrasound room I went crying. I am sure this did not ease other mothers sitting in the waiting room, sorry. When BB came up on the screen I saw a hand opening and closing as if Baby Beasley was waving to me saying, I am good momma. So I cried some more. There was even what looked to be a curl on top of his or her head. (Jason's hair for sure if it's a curl) They measured little one again and we all could see that Baby Beasley is moving I am just for some reason not able to feel it as often. So we stopped there and they let me come home. I have to go back next week for a follow up. Please say a prayer that my little sweet pea is healthy and happy in there. I think s/he is just laid back like daddy and just hanging out until the big day. :) Oh and BB has turned and it good position - no more breech! Yippee!!
