So I'll be 39 weeks tomorrow and my due date is next Thursday (October 30th).  I was hoping Isabelle would already be here by now, but looks like she's content being inside my tummy for now.  The doctor said that the latest she'd let me go would be 41 weeks, and at that point she'd have to induce me.  Hopefully it won't come to that and she'll come before that has to happen. 

In the meantime, I've been working from home and dealing with my PUPPP (an itchy pregnancy rash).  I'm thankful that it's not as bad as it was in the beginning, but it can still be pretty uncomfortable especially at night when it tends to flare up.   Other than that, I think everybody is just waiting...and the grandparents to be are all on standby. 

We'll keep you posted....

Earlier this month, we went on our babymoon to San Francisco, CA.  The weather was beautiful and we ate tons of yummy food!  I love how all the food is organic there!  We were also there for a wedding so we got the opportunity to hang out with some old friends that have moved to California.  Within the past 12 months, this was actually our 3rd trip to California since Andrew has family/friends there.  However, this time since we were on our own, we got to do all of the touristy stuff that we normally don't get to do, and I even got to do a special massage/facial for mommies to be.  It was great!  I think I even fell asleep during the massage. 

Here are some pics of the trip:

Dinner with Andrew's family:

Monday, July 28th was my 26 week check up.  The baby's heartbeat was nice and strong and she appears to be growing right on schedule.  And I only gained 3.75 pounds since my last doctor's visit.  Not bad...since I'll probably be putting on some pounds these last few months of pregnancy as baby Fong starts to put on some fat on her lean little body.  According to the books she weighs approximately 2 pounds now!!

And next week, I'll be entering into the last trimester.  I still can't believe she'll be here in just a few more months!  

I also took the diabetes test, but now I'm just waiting on the results.  They said if they call me, then I need to go back in for a more formal test.  But if I don't hear from them, then that means I'm fine.  So since the results are supposed to come back within a week and tomorrow is Friday, I'm hoping that means that I might be in the clear, but we'll have to wait and see...
