Here is a little info about my baby and her development.
Twenty-Six Weeks!
Don't panic if your uterus suddenly starts tightening and relaxing -- Braxton Hicks contractions often begin around this time. They're simply your body's way of practicing and preparing for labor. (If the contractions are regular or particularly painful, call your doc just to be sure it's not the real thing.)
Baby's now the size of an eggplant!
Baby's soaking up your antibodies, getting her immune system ready for life outside the womb. Eyes are forming, and she'll soon be practicing the blink...perfect for batting those freshly grown lashes.
I will not go into how much weight I have gained (must watch the cookie intake, lol). DH and I have both felt LO (little one) move. He was really surprised when he felt her, LG (little girl) has an powerful punch/kick. I am still working as a part-time sub and so far no one other than my boss knows I am preggers. I am obviously showing but with winter upon us, I wear more layers so bump shows less. DH and I are still deciding on names, so far we only agree on ONE! We picked out our crib and my registry is 90% done.
Overall all is well. We are happy, healthy, and excited. I still worry (don't all women) but am thankful to have friends with babies that are willing to help/answer my questions/soothe my mommy worries. My friends, family, and DH have all been amazing during this time.
98 days until my EDD! Grow baby girl GROW!
