7 Months!

I am now 28 weeks pregnant. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going. I feel wonderful. I feel her move ALL the time. She is so active. Way more active than Jakobe ever was in my belly. Her movements are painful at times. Especially when she flips over. It really hurts. I still love feeling her move and kick. I have gained 5 pounds since last month. Putting me at a total weight gain of 21 pounds so far. Her heartbeat was 150 bpm. I had the glucola test to test for gestational diabetes....I passed! The doctor measured my belly and it measured right on track at 28 cm. I am still eating lots and lots of Strawberries and Snickers Blizzards. My belly button has also popped out already. I am now down to doctor's appointments every two weeks. I have a 28 week ultrasound this Wednesday. It's my birthday present from my husband. I can't wait to see Callie and see how much she has grown since her last ultrasound at 20 weeks.

Callie's 2nd Baby Shower!

Callie is already spoiled and she's not even here yet. She was lucky and got two baby showers. The first one was for family and the second one was for friends. Thank you to all my friends who came out to celebrate. Callie got a TON of presents. What a great day!

The cake. The presents.

6 months!

Holy Belly! Where did that thing come from? I am now 24 weeks pregnant. My belly has definitely popped. I have now gained a total of 16 pounds. Wow! I feel her move all the time. I have figured her schedule out. She wakes up around 9:30...then again after lunch.....then around 5:00 and again when I lay down to go to bed. It is so much fun to feel her move and kick although some kicks are starting to be a little painful. With her just being a little under 2 lbs she still has some weight to put on though which means harder and stronger kicks from her in the future. I am still craving Strawberries and now Snickers. I have to say that I feel absolutely great! I have been having a little back pain sometimes when I lay down at night if I've been on my feet a lot that day and my feet seem to be swelling. Some days better than others but overall I feel absolutely great! My belly button has half way popped out and Jakobe likes to try to push it in. He also likes to pound on my belly. Which does hurt. He just doesn't get it quite yet. He will soon, hopefully. My next appt. is July 22nd and I have to drink the nasty Glucola drink to test for gestational diabetes.
