28 Weeks

We had our 28 week check up today with the Parinatologist and the OB. I had a dream this last week that we had a girl so C.J.'s first question was, "Can you confirm that we still have a boy?" I think he was a bit concerned about my dream :) Rest assured, both the sonographer and the doctor confirmed we still have a boy!
Baby's kidneys are still enlarged (Pyelectosis). Both doctors still don't seem too concerned but want to keep an eye on things. I will have another ultrasound at 32 weeks and again at 36 weeks. As long as the kidneys don't get any bigger, they will just go with putting the baby on an antibiotic at birth. We also found out that we have "accelerated fetal growth", in other words, a big baby! I am 28 wks. and he is measuring just over 30 wks. Yes, he also has a big head (he wouldn't be a "fayby" without it). I think he has C.J.'s lips and my nose. We'll see!
My sweet tooth has not gone away but I am still doing fine with my weight gain. I had a random craving for corn dogs a couple of weeks ago but that seems to have subsided.
C.J. just about sent me into pre-term labor this week. He was in Chicago on business and not supposed to get home until Thursday night. At about 11:20 on Wednesday night I thought someone was trying to break in and after not being able to reach Siege on his cell, I panicked and called 911. After giving the dispatcher my information and him insisting that I calm down and reassuring me he would stay on the phone with me until the police arrived, the "intruder" finally got in with a dozen roses. Poor guy! Just trying to surprise his wife and she over reacted! I had to explain to the dispatcher as well as the policeman that showed up at our door after shining his flashlight on our house as well as the neighbor's, that yes, C.J. really was my husband, not an intruder :)
