No news is good news

I haven't posted in a while, so I figured I would. Things are going really well. We go to the doctor at the beginning of every month, but there hasn't been much to report. Good healthy heartbeat, and getting bigger. I am starting to get tired pretty early at night, but I have also been very busy, so I don't think I can blame it all on Peanut. My back gives me some trouble, but overall it is continuing to be a very easy pregnancy. I have been a little more emotional lately... Whit is handling it very well I must say. He had a hard time understanding random tears at first, but now he is just super sweet to me until it passes. I started having Braxton Hicks contractions, once or twice a day around week 24. At first I thought it was the baby pushing its back against my belly button, but then my weekly emails from TheBump.com told me to watch for signs of early labor which kind of freaked me out! Luckily I had an appointment that day anyways and the doctor said it was Braxton hicks and nothing to worry about. They did a few tests just in case, but by then I wasn't worried about anymore. In general I'm not really worried about anything. Well, except I am terrified of having a giant baby. I don't have any particular reason (not much in terms of abnormally large babies in our families) but it freaks me out when I see a 3 month old baby with a head bigger than its mother!!! Other than that I think I am doing a good job of not being neurotic.

It is wild to think we are rounding the bend and before long we will be a family of 3.... well not including the pups of course. Whit is very anxious to meet Peanut, and continues to be absolutely wonderful and is taking care of us all the time. Peanut and I are so very blessed!



This pic turned out pretty cool with the lighting and you can really see how big Peanut is getting.

This is about how big Peanut is in there

I guess thats it for now!
