More doctors.....more blood...I'm drained!

I am officially 29 weeks.
Yesterday I went in for my weekly perinatalogist appointment. The previous day my OB called and said that if the chicken pox had scabbed over I would be able to go to my appointments, so that was great!
I went in and the baby had the hiccups on the ultrasound....it was the cutest thing to watch!
I got to bring both Matthew and Christopher and they really got a kick out of it.
The fluid looks good, the blood flow is still normal and the baby is about 3lbs or so.
Later in the day I went in to my OB and I lost 2lbs. my blood pressure is still good and since the blood work didn't show immunity to varicella yet, they had to draw more blood.
I should get those results by tomorrow.
The midwife had trouble finding the top of my fundus cause it's so far under my ribs already, so she had the doc come in and measure, and right now I'm measuring at 31 weeks instead of the 29 I should be.... I won't get my hopes up though, we all know how my babies tend to come late.
On Friday I go in for my 3 hour glucose torture test and go back to the OB every two weeks from now till 36 weeks.....
This whole pregnancy has been sooo exhausting and emotionally draining, I can't wait to be holding this little girl in my arms.

I can't believe it's been 29 weeks already! Time has flown. Haha! Do you want to kick me now? I'm guessing from this post that time has not exactly flown for you, but you're almost there!
