Getting close!

Hello Baby Berger,

We are getting really close!  Actually, I think the countdown has started.  Your due date is June 4th but mama is actually scheduled to go in on Tuesday, June 3.  We are all very excited and looking forward to seeing you :) 

Our weekly doctor appointments have gone well.  Your heart beat is around the 130's.  When you hear your own heartbeat in the ultrasound, you get excited and it goes up to the 150's.  Very cute.  Like your brother, you're a mover.  However, you like to constantly move and wiggle whereas he is more of a kicker and puncher. 

Ben came 5 weeks early but I think you are snug as a bug in mama's belly.  Your favorite foods (my top cravings) are croissants (butter, almond and ham & cheese).  You also like all sorts of fruits.  I can't believe we will be meeting each other face to face soon!

36 weeks - Cinco de Mayo

Hello Baby Berger!

The weather is finally getting warmer and we are all ready to meet you.  It's been a couple of months since my last update.  You're growing and developing very well.  I don't have a lot of cravings which means you're always content with your meals :) 

You're also very active and it reminds me of your brother when he was in my belly.  You love to kick and punch in the morning, after meals and super active when I lay down at night.  Many times, when Beni is laying on mama's belly - you like to play with him... kicking his head, etc.  Beni doesn't seem to mind at all.  It's so fun to watch.

Right now, we are at 36 weeks - you're probably 7 pounds and the size of a large canteloupe.  Mama is feeling good.  I've had some normal last month stuff - swelling, fatigue but nothing major. 

Your room is all set to go!  Bed is made, curtains are up, drawers are stocked with cloths, swaddlers, bottles and formula. 

Yipao will be here for three weeks when you arrive.  Uncle Johnny will come for a week and Nai Nai for a week as well.  Boy are you a popular one!

Can't wait to see you!!
