30 weeks




So I can't believe we are already at least 3/4 done with this pregnancy! The time really does go by much faster with the second. This pregnancy has def. been much harder with a 2 year old to take care of, but just as special. I am already feeling stretched to the max, but have a long way to go as far as growing goes. I have put on more weight this time (so far around 15 pounds) but with Avery I only gained a total of 16, so we will see what the final verdict is this time. I have had more complications this time. I have bleed in every trimester, including just last week. Thankfully everything has checked out ok each time. Last week I had an US (due to the bleeding) and found out that she is breech :( She has plenty of time to turn, I just hope I don't go into preterm labor again and have to have a C-section because she didn't turn in time. She was also measuring large at 3 pounds 2 ounces at 29 weeks! That is big, take it from a NICU nurse. It can't be from all of the yummy treats I have been eating, or that it is MUCH harder to exercise, let alone move around this time. Avery is really sweet with the baby. She always wants to kiss baby sissy and talk to her. She is already practicing changing diapers on her baby dolls. We just got a double stroller for our daily walks with the dog. We took her and her friend in it and she seems to like it. I love it because it is easy to fold up and push. It is no heavier than pushing my single even with two 30 pound kids in it! That is about it for now. I have 6 more weeks or work to go and looking forward to having some time off before the baby as long as I don't go into labor at work like last time.

Those are such cute pictures! Cool, you got a double stroller!! Praying she turns for you and that all may be well! I love her already! Love you too!

You look great! I think that I gained 15 pounds in my first month of pregnancy, lol. It is a lot harder with two, but a lot more fun also. Get all the sleep that you can now, and enjoy your one-on-one time with Avery. :)
