I think we are ready for this little guy, we may not have our nursery set up yet but we do have a Sophie and a pair of Osh Kosh Bgosh overalls. What more does a kid need? I loved my Osh Kosh overalls as a kid, I even had a fancy pink pair. (Thank you Mom)
Everything is going well with me, I had an interesting doctors appointment last week. It was my last appointment with my regular doctor, my next appointment I start going to an OB, closer to home. I went into the doctors office worried about my weight, not because I thought I gained too much but because I felt like I wasn't gaining enough. I'm having so much trouble wrapping my head around this. Worried about not gaining weight? Women do that?!? From all the research I did, I thought that I should have gained, in four weeks, 4 to 8 lbs but I wasn't even close to that. The nurse said nothing and when I asked my doctor he said I was fine. I guess since I did gain something and my belly is growing (a lot) I'm good. When my doctor was checking my belly he got out his measuring tape and measured the size of my belly, the first thing he said was "hmmmm". That's exactly what I wanted to hear, wow. Then he said "you are measuring at 24 weeks" and I was only 22 weeks and "well, he's a big boy". I wasn't surprised that he thought he was big but my doctor is very soft spoken and polite, so for him to make a comment like that, we are in for a big kid, this guy is probably going to grow to be taller than Mike. My mom is convinced that he's draining everything I've got, sounds about right.
Baxter has also grown more and more attached to me, he needs to snuggle me every morning and every night. I think he's protecting me and the baby. I really don't mind but the only problem is he thinks that my belly is his personal pillow. Ummm sorry, but no, Mike has to keep pulling him off of me and he just looks at him like "come on, it's so comfortable".
