24 Weeks!

I had my doctor's appointment today.  All is well... love hearing that heart beat!!

He said that I'm measuring closer to 25 weeks.  
So what does that mean?  Big baby?  I hope not too big... just healthy big.
This was taken last week, but close enough.
(I'm only taking one of these once a month.  HERE is a comparison from last month)

We did have a bit of a scare last week.  I woke up in the night bleeding a little.  I'm not going to share the details, that could take a long time and be a little gross... but it scared me and I was a nervous wreck all day. I called the Doc and went in for an ultrasound that afternoon.  The baby is absolutely fine.  No warning flags and everything looked just as it should.  So why?  Nobody knows, sometimes that just happens.  In fact I wouldn't have even shared this story... it really has no important value, other than to make people worry... but I had to share one of the cute pictures I got at the ultrasound.

Here's our little boy, sucking on his feet... content as can be.
That little stinker.
So cute.  It's always good to feel him kicking, see him on screen,  or hear his heartbeat... I love it!!  Even though I am starting to feel uncomfortable at times... I have "those moments" and I remember how good it is to have this opportunity & know it is all worth it.  I really think I'm beginning to fall in love with him.  I can't wait to meet him in person!

Melissa,
I'm glad that everything turned out alright! It's no fun to have those little scares that make you worry, so sorry! Your curtains look wonderful, best of luck with the rest of your baby prep, so fun :)
Ken says hello to Briant!

I am so glad that everything is okay. I know what you mean about falling in love with them. I don't even know the gender yet and I already love 'baby'. You look great by the way!
