Baby Update

Look at this sweet boy!
I had a great appointment today! Baby Sam is weighing in at 3 pounds and 4 ounces. He's a big boy so far! The ultrasound tech took all his measurements and began to calculate his size. Then she said, "How big was your daughter?" Ummm...9 pounds, two weeks early?? And then she measured him all over again. haha. He's in the 76% percentile for size. Good job, Sam -- keep growing!!! He also has HAIR!!!!! And he's sitting in a breech position, which probably will change but doesn't much matter since I have to have a c-section anyway. :) I got to see and feel an elbow jab me!! So fun. And after a visit with the doctor afterward, we can still conclude that my contractions are NOT doing anything to make this baby arrive early, so that is very good news. And now I get to go every TWO weeks! ;)

  6. Hi there - new to your blog but I just wanted to say thank you for all your wonderful verses from the Bible. I have been struggling in my walk lately, especially after the most recent blow of our 2nd m/c at the beginning of July. Reading your blog and those verses reminded me that God is in complete control and He knows the life the our baby will have even before we create our baby. I will be reflecting on the verses every night now - so thank you! and I'm so happy for you and your blessed journey so far! congrats!

  7. Your picture is amazing! I just found your blog and read your story. I've just been told that I have MTHFR and will also be taking ababy aspirin and folic acid. Seeing your baby boy just filled me with hope. Thank you!
