more baby updates

I had another check up on Friday and it went very well. My blood pressure is good, weight good, baby's heart rate good. There is not too much done at these appointments, but it's always reassuring to go and hear that everything is good. I'm now at the stage of pregnancy where I have an appointment every 2 weeks! It seems a little much this early, but I was told every doctor is different. Anyway, it is nice to be able to see her this often and ask questions that come up. Most recently I have had to ask what I can take for a cough. I've had this same dry cough for over 2 weeks now. I feel so bad every time I go into a coughing fit since it shakes up my belly so much. I feel like I'm giving her "shaken baby syndrome" in the womb. Anyway, other than the cough everything is good. :) I am now 7 months and 1 week (tomorrow). I'll post 7 month pics soon.
In other news, however still baby related, Dave surprised me the other day with the stroller and car seat we want! I'm starting to get that anxious feeling, like we're not ready, so every little thing that gets done or purchased makes me feel so much better! This definitely helped!!! We put them together right away and figured out all the latches. I'm very pleased with them! I keep going into the nursery and just staring at them. Weird, maybe...but, it just is all starting to feel so much more real! I can't wait to meet our little girl!
