Doctor's Visit - 30 Weeks

The doctor's appointment I had at 9am this morning went very well! Our little Tiger is doing so good! Today at the OB, I got to meet Dr. Mark Salley. He's definitely my favorite so far. The first thing he said to me when he walked in the room was, "Are you an aerobics instructor? You look so fit for being pregnant!" Hardly, but thanks! He also said my weight looked great, only gained 2 lbs!!! I told him I was shocked since I had a HUGE Easter dinner and tons of candy the last few days. Haha! My blood pressure was great, 106/60 and the baby's heartbeat was normal. He measured my stomach and said I had great skin and a perfect pregnant belly. I love him! He said his wife was also a graphic designer and a Clemson alumni. It's so meant to be! He said the main thing I need to focus on from now on is to make sure Mason is moving every day. But overall, we're right where we should be, everything's on schedule and I'm feeling GREAT! Dr. Salley said I got an A today!!! He also reminded me to sign up for their free Child Birth classes next month. Lawton and I will be going May 19th and 26th. He said they mostly focus on what to expect (monitors, epidural, anxiety issues, etc.), more so than breathing techniques. Who remembers all that when you're in labor anyway?!

Love,
Erika, Lawton, and Baby Mason
