Week Twenty-Eight

May 13, 2010 by Aliesha

Click here to compare with last week’s belly-bump shot. Do you think I’m growing? I do! 🙂

Baby girl is very active! I’ve been talking with some other moms and they said that for many of their babies, active in the womb = active as a baby/child! We’re looking forward SO MUCH to meeting our little bundle of energy.

I feel great, other than the occasional big kick in the ribs :). I’ve been sleeping really well, which has been wonderful. I have found myself “waddling” already a few times recently! Trying to maintain good posture despite the extra weight in the front.

I think this week marks the entry into the third trimester! It’s so exciting to think that we will be holding our baby girl in less than three months.

Thank you for your continued prayers for us and for our baby! We appreciate the care you have shown us as we expectantly wait.

Week Twenty-Seven

May 7, 2010 by Aliesha

I feel like I just took last week’s photo!

I had a doctor’s appointment this past week (yesterday, actually) that included a glucose test and a RhoGam shot. My midwife said things are going well and that the baby’s heartbeat is steady and strong.

She did tell me that since my last appointment (5 weeks ago) I gained 10 pounds! No wonder I’ve been feeling a LOT bigger in my belly! It’s okay though, since I was not at the weight I needed to be last time. Now I am right on track, and as long as I only gain a pound a week from here on out, I’ll be fine.

Baby girl is very active and responds to me pressing against my belly. She kicks back! We are excited about all of the ways she is growing and developing.

We continue to thank God for the healthy pregnancy thus far. We do not take it for granted!
