A visit to the Obstetrician

... another day, another doctor....
this morning it was the obstetrician turn ...
Since last Friday i was dreading today a little bit...
i did not sleep a lot last night...
woke up at 7 and ended up being st the hospital 45 minutes before my appointment... they still saw me 15 minutes after my appointment time... they are seriously overbooked...

last time i went to the obstetrician i saw Dr. Patel, so i was expecting to see him again ... of course not,

I was called by a woman (already a good sign) and she smiled at me and we laugh over the fact that she wanted to pronounce my family name as she is Romanian and she was sure she could say it right (she could indeed)

It was a completely different experience, i did explain to her that after last week i was a bit apprehensive and she went through everything with me, every number and every line..
We had a good chat, about everything including that she used to be a gymnast (like me) etc etc etc

So as per the doctor the BABY IS FINE... all is great
it is a small baby for English standards, but as she said "you are having a perfectly normal European Baby"

Micino is 40cm long at the moment, and weights 1.726 Kg
we expect the total weight to go up to 2.9Kg/3.2Kg - perfect weight...

so i came home and relaxed (i did freakishly clean the sofa covers, but hey)
and this is what Richard found on his return from work:



Yes I do like to sleep on the floor nowadays

 and i still poke my tongue out when i wake up


So it's no more doctors only a couple more midwife visits... i have 7 more weeks, and i will try to enjoy them...
Baby we are getting ready for you!!!!!!
