At my 36 week check-up, the doctor did an ultrasound to see what Brennan was up to. The ultrasound showed that he was in place with his head down and his little behind pushing into my ribs on the right side...just like Jacob did. My amniotic fluid level was 8, which is good. He looked healthy and...big...he weighed 6 lbs 9 oz! I know that is nothing compared to how big Jax (Mendy's little man due very soon), but that is big for me! He is already half a pound bigger than Jacob was at 36 weeks. That translates into an 8 lb baby being delivered a week early! No wonder I am very uncomfortable and having trouble breathing. I have gained approximately 26 lbs. Not much else has changed. It is just getting harder to do things around the house, and I have to take frequent breaks. A good night's sleep is a thing of the past.
Here is a picture of his face. You can make out an eye, part of his nose and mouth, and a chubby cheek! I can't wait to meet my new little man!!

Woo hoo! I can't wait to see these new little guys!
Awwwww, what a cute little face! And by the way, you are just glowing! Every time I have a small panic attack from breathing issues (I am sooo clautrophobic), I think of you! It helps to know we're in the same boat together, but I wouldn't wish anyone on this boat with me, haha! What a perfect little man Brennan is going to be. 6 lbs. 9 oz..... in my dreams. You are lucky there girl!
