27 Weeks

Exciting news... We made it to our third trimester! Some say it's 27 weeks, some say 28 weeks, but either way tomorrow I will be 28 weeks so in my mind we are there:) Things are moving right along. Our girl's room is finished, now we just need the furniture, which should be in within the next 1-3 weeks! We are super excited to get it all set up and I think I will feel more ready for her to arrive when that is finished. Earlier this week baby girl started getting the hiccups! At first I thought it was weird she was kicking so lightly and so regularly (like every 1-2 seconds), but then I realized she must be getting the hiccups. I looked some things up online and that's what it seems to be and that is supposed to be happening right about now also. She is kicking more and you can see her movements on my belly all of the time now. There's definitely not as much room to move around in there! My next Dr. appointment is in 2 weeks, then they start every other week. That's about all that's going on for now!

26 Weeks

We had our 6 month Dr. appointment on Thursday and things are coming along right on track. My belly is measuring right at 26 weeks and her heart rate is still sounding strong. I had my glucose tolerance test where I have to drink this glucose drink and then they draw my blood an hour later to test for gestational diabetes. I haven't heard anything, so I'm assuming all is well. My dr. said no news from them is good news:)

Daniel is now in the process of painting the baby's room. We went with a green color for the walls and plan to have pink and brown accents. That will match the bedding we picked out. We have furniture ordered now as well, which should be in within 3-5 weeks!! We got a crib and a combo dresser with a mirror. The color of the furniture is brushed white. I can't wait to get it all put together! Here are some pics of the room and my awesome painter:) We will post more when we get the furniture put together in the room. Things seem to be coming along nicely. 3 months left and her room is getting closer every week to being ready for our little miracle to show up!!

25 Weeks

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Things have been going well. We have enjoyed the holiday and are now getting busy getting the nursery ready for baby to arrive. We have ordered furniture and Daniel has started painting. We are painting the nursery a light green color. We will post some pictures when we have everything finished and set up.

As for our girl, she has been kicking more and more, although she does have her sleepy days where she is not very active. Daniel finally got to feel her kick this past weekend!!

Our next dr. appointment is this Thursday. I have to have my glucose tolerance test done, which I'm not really looking forward to. I hear the drink is awful and I who enjoys getting their blood drawn?? Hopefully everything will be fine. As for now, we only have 9 more appointments left before her arrival. We are just waiting and continuing to get things ready for our baby girls arrival!
