Still growing

I had my blood draw for platelet count yesterday. Should hear back in a few days on the count. Pray it is over 100!! I weighed 147, that's a total of 22 pounds gained so far. Baby is measuring a little ahead. My cervix is still closed. Baby girl's heartbeat was elevated to 170. Dr said spikes are good, but she wanted it to go back down and it wasn't. I will admit I was a little dehydrated yesterday, which was most likely the problem. I drank a bottle of water and had my ultrasound. The heartbeat was back in the 140's. Her head is extremely low, which explains all the pressure and nerve pain! Her estimated weight is 6 pounds 11 ounces (70th percentile). Looks like we will have another 8 pound baby!! Ultrasound tech said her breathing looked great along with everything else! They snuck in a 3D picture,so Brooke could actually see baby sisters face!! She recognized her nose, eyes, and mouth! VERY COOL! Still no name picked out. Other than that, I will post again in 2 weeks!
36 weeks
