Little PacMan
We had three appointments in the past few weeks (March 9, March 18, March 26) and had ultrasound number 8 done. Our OB-GYN had to zoom out to get our growing baby fully into the frame. As soon as we were able to get a clear picture, she pointed out a hand waving. With a slight adjustment, we saw our little boy “chomping” his mouth. The doctor said that was her first time seeing that.
22 Weeks and 4 Days
The first time we saw our little angel Bella, she was waving at about 4 weeks.
The baby is kicking and swimming a lot; I’ve felt him a few times. Momma is getting tired easily and has pains in her legs every once in a while. The doc checked the crevix, and its still looking good. We have reached another milestone by passing the 23 week mark and pray everyday for a healthy, full-term pregnanacy.
Heard the Heartbeat Yesterday
On Sunday, February 15, we reached 17 weeks. We had a routine check up with the Nurse Practitioner yesterday and heard the heartbeat. Everything seemed to check out, and we can’t thank God enough for blessing us with this baby! We went to the lab to have blood drawn for an AFP test and have another ultra sound to check the anatomy scheduled on March 2. Reyna says that the baby kicks like crazy lately, especially when he hears my voice or when reading to him.
On a side note, it sucks when people look at us and assume that we are some young irresponsible kids having a baby. Maybe in a few years, I can read back at this and say, “Damn, I wish we still looked young.”
Another aside. Reggie now has a fiancé:
