Drop It Like It's Hot...

I've noticed a difference in the position of my belly! I think I'm starting to "drop." At first, I thought it was just me, but several other people have commented on it, too! I'm thinking...isn't it too early to do so? Well, I looked on babycenter.com (gotta love the internet). It does say that my body is preparing for delivery but when the dropping starts is different for every mom (as is everything else). Although, it did say dropping can occur up to 4 weeks before delivery!!! The website listed some other symptoms of this event and one is the fact the baby takes up more room in my pelvis...yes! The pressure on the ribs has subsided :) Also, it mentions waddling...hee-hee. Funny word, funny walk. I actually don't ever notice my waddle until people point it out. And I find it quite funny when Jason asks me why I'm walking weird...oh, I don't know...because I'm pregnant! And then there's the increased number visits to the ladies room...check! Of course I had a doctor appointment yesterday and totally forgot to ask her about it. I was sitting most of the time during our 5 minute visit so she wouldn't have noticed. I may call the doctor or wait until my next visit.
Oh, by the way, when my doctor walked in she said she had seen me somewhere. I start thinking...great...what was I doing? Probaby lifting a heavy child and drinking a Route 44 Coca-Cola all while smoking a cigarette...okay, so I don't do any of this, but my mind thinks the worse. She saw me at The Police concert and reassured me it was fine :) I said great because I'm going to another concert this Friday!
Anyway, who knows if I am experiencing dropping or lightening, but I am a day shy of 32 weeks! My next appointment is in 2 weeks and I'll be having an ultrasound. I'm excited to see how much bigger Isabella is!
Betty, Barbara and Mike..."Drop It Like It's Hot" is a song by a man named Snoop Dog. I thought maybe y'all would be confused ;)
