We just had an appointment this last Monday. Surprisingly, the visit was uneventful, except for one thing... I gained 8 lbs in the last month! Now my Dr has not said anything to me about my weight, unless I ask, until that visit. I guess I need to start watching what I eat and not use the "I'm eating for 2" excuse anymore. I have already gained more than half of the weight that I should and have 14 more weeks to go. Wow 14 more weeks! I remember hitting the 14 week mark. I guess this is going by faster than I thought. For those of you who have requested it, I finally got an updated belly shot.
I am 25.5 weeks along in this picture and look huge. I often wonder how my stomach is going to get any bigger. I'm already starting to feel some discomfort, such as trouble breathing and I'm told it is only going to get worse. Oh boy.
Speaking of boys. We had another ultrasound at this last visit. Here are some of the pictures from it:

There is no doubt it is a boy. He is definitely not shy about showing his manhood. Now try and get a picture of his face and it is a whole other story.

It also looks like we may have a little body builder on our hands. Not only was he doing a body builder pose, but it also looks like he already has a bicep muscle forming. His daddy is so proud.
Well everything is going good and according to plan. We just hope things keep going smoothly and that our little man doesn't come too early. As anxious as I am to meet him, I wouldn't mind carrying him around in me for another 3 months or so. Until next time...
Love the belly shot! Your lookin good Karin. I wish I could disagree about the comfort and weight gain, but it truly only gets worst. But before you know it your little man will be here and it will be all worth it.
ReplyDeleteTry not to worry too much about the weight gain. I really think these thing are only guidelines and we all just naturally put on different amounts.
ReplyDeleteFabby bump and pictures.
