Friday Randoms

*24 weeks...next goal 28 weeks!

*Staying inside is wearing on me. So bored. Some days I'm happy and other days not so much.

*B has a rash on his neck, his first real rash. Dr said Cortisone cream should work.

*He looks so good in this teal shirt (Old Navy).

*Typical nap position for B (2-3x a day).  Since I can't lift him I just scoot him in my chair. He loves it but he's running out of room.

*It's going to be cold this Memorial Weekend and honestly I'm happy because I will be inside mostly.

*Happy Friday!

23 weeks

One more week till our first goal of 24 weeks...viability. Each week after 24 her chances go up if she were to be born early. Hoping not to even entertain that idea until at least 30w but we are taking it week by week.

Weight gain: 16 pounds (uhhh) No exercise is catching up to me. Loosing this weight is going to be a bitch! The rest is all worth it!

I can't get enough pumpkin bread and cream cheese. I found this  amazing bread company that ships the most delicious GF bread. Check them out. You will never even know it's GF!

Lots of growing pains this week. I do think my belly is smaller than it was with B. Maybe it's because she is low.

My Dr has seen many women with short cervix (and cerclage) go into the mid-late 30's. Hopefully that's me too! 

Sleeping has been awful. I am so uncomfortable I wake up all the time. 

I have a set schedule with my helpers for the week and have someone coming everyday. I am really enjoying the naps!

Some comparison...same shirt!

*23 weeks today! Another week to celebrate.

*D is going on a retreat this weekend and my mom is staying with me to help with B and do all the lifting! D has the night time routine down so this should be interesting, hopefully B lets us all sleep.

*B got fitted for some new AFO's this week. 

*We had a great Mother's Day relaxing. This is the extent of my photos for the day...LOL. There were others but my pregnancy self consciousness took over and deleted them.

*Happy Friday!

Dr Update (22w5d)

Another week...another Dr appointment. I have been on the progesterone suppositories for exactly one week and they seem to be keeping things steady. I am still taking my shots every Friday too.

This week there was no cervical change which is good. Back next Tuesday.

Baby girl is doing good. She was yawning, it was cute. We only get a quick heart beat and they measure her every month. Still the quick peeks are fun.

She is still low but running out of room to hang out in my pelvis...thank god!

*Thank you for the continued prayers and well wishes on my Dr updates. This is a critical time for me. Trying to keep her in as long as possible. Every week after 24 her chances improve dramatically. My goal is still Aug 1 (35weeks).

*I canceled all my plans this weekend and plan to rest all day while Derek is home.Once I hit 24-25 weeks I can breathe a little since that's technically viability.

*Even though everyone has said 'your already xyz weeks along, that went fast' I feel like every week is a month!

*B is such a scammer for nap time. He sleeps so well on laps, good thing it's only 30-40min and mom can doze off too. But could he be any cuter when he sleeps?

*B is enjoying his grandparent time since I have help coming over daily.

*This week in OT B experienced shaving cream for the time. It was hilarious.

*Happy Friday and Happy Mother's Day to all the moms and moms-to-be.
