3D Ultrasound In Week 26!

My Daughter in Pregnancy Week 26
This was one of the best weeks of my pregnancy! I was still full of energy and my belly wasn't too big yet.
My husband and I had been anticipating our 3D ultrasound for several weeks. We never had this opportunity with our first child. We invited our parents to come in with us since we went to a private ultrasound company. I was mostly excited to reconfirm that we were having a girl! So many people on my husband's side have boys so it was hard to believe that we were having the first girl. We got to see her sucking her thumb and chewing on her umbilical cord. It was the most amazing thing I had ever seen.
As for the rest of my week, I was still having my usual cravings of mashed potatoes and gravy with green beans. Despite all of my cravings I still didn't have stretch marks in week 26. Sleeping was getting very hard though. My ribs felt like they were splitting apart and my hips would get so sore at night.
At my OB appointment for this week, my belly was measuring three weeks smaller than my dates. Since I knew my dates were accurate, my doctor didn't move my due date but she was keeping an eye on the growth.
