Week 30

It's week 30, it seems like things are moving at a very fast pace lately. Just this week we have a meeting with our estate planning attorney, the first appointment with the Stony Brook Midwives, and another 4D ultrasound at the end of the week. Maggie has been doing great, she does get winded more easily, is having to nap more often and she's noticed that sometimes when she walks her belly is swinging back and forth, kind of making its own way.

We attended a tour of the Stony Brook University birthing center led by the midwives. They gave an overview of their practice and answered lots of questions. The midwives are all about good pregnancy outcomes. For example, they deliver babies naturally 89% of the time versus about 60-70% of local ob/gyns. Additionally, they help in establishing a birthing plan and are much more focused on all aspects of the pregnancy. We're looking forward to our first appointment.
