25 weeks





















Not much has changed this week, except Judah keeps getting bigger! I love watching my belly move around, and see little limbs pop out here and there, its pretty much my favorite past time. He seems to have real active days, and then quiets down for a day or two. I am learning what his schedule is too which is fun. We have a little over 3 months left!

We are going to start the search for our house soon, and getting excited/nervous about that. lso I am still searching for a different job. I am looking for something part time, and am hoping after Judah is born I can possibly work out a schedule or find a babysitting/nanny job that I can do while taking him. So if you know of anyone :)

Hope everyone is having a good end to the summer!

22, 23, 24 weeks

So I am a little behind, but our computer has been not working. Everything has been going very well! We are currently in our 24th week, even though our little guy is measuring at 25 weeks. He is moving around ALOT. I love that part, feeling his little bumps, and feet rolling against my hand. Its awesome being able to feel my baby against my hand before I can actually hold him.

We had a ultrasound at 23 weeks to recheck the placenta, and it is now "borderline" which means its in the normal range for its thickness. Praise God! It is no longer a concern, so no more ultrasounds to check on the placenta. The baby looked great! I have some pics but our scanner isnt working. I even got the "I'm definitly a boy" pic. Its very obvious, lol. The only other ultrasound they suggested is one at 36 weeks, IF my midwife feels its neccesary, and its just to check his growth to make sure hes not going to be to big. I will take a big baby over a small one any day, it means he is healthy! :)

We had a tour at the hospital last night, there must have been about 50 pregnant ladies there. it was a lot of fun, and we got to see where we will give birth. Such a relaxing atmsophere, it doesnt even feel like your in a hospital.

At my 28 week appt (3rd trimester, yay!) I am going to do the glucose test again, and also get checked for anemia. I know they will come back normal. God is giving me the pregnancy I have always wanted, uncomplicated and healthy! After our loss last year I almost didnt believe it could be this way, but God has blessed us with a healthy baby boy, and we praise him for Judah every day. Which by the way, Judah means "Praise". Fits him very well :)

We just keep praying for health, and for him to finish growing before he tries to make his appearance. Also we are looking for a house so we pray he helps us find an affordable, safe home to raise our son, and our future children in.
