Baby B: 29 Weeks

And...the adventure begins! Last Wednesday (28 wk, 5 days) I started having contractions. After an hour, they were still consistent at an avg. of 5 minutes apart.  Thankfully, Mark got home from work right at that time. We loaded up and headed to L&D.  His mom met us up there to keep Baby A entertained.  They gave me meds to stop the contractions, and did a FFN test (which came back negative).  We were sent home with meds and instructions to take it easy.  I go back to see Dr. E today, so we will see what he has to say about everything!

*Sweet note: Mark and his mom got visitor stickers to go in and out of L&D.  Ashlynn came in with a sticker that said "I am the Big Sister." My heart just about melted. Can't believe our baby is fixing to be a sister!"

Pregnancy Highlights:

How Far Along: 29 weeks

Size of baby: She should be around 15 inches long and weight 2.5 lbs (about the size of a butternut squash)

Weight gain: +13

Maternity Clothes: Yes

Gender: Another sweet girl!

Movement: All over! I love feeling her move, and knowing that she is doing ok in there.  She has started kicking/moving a little lower this week. The nurses at L&D had a hard time monitoring her because she was all over the place

Sleep: Big sister has had allergies all week, so that has hampered everyone's sleep a bit

Symptoms:  Exhaustion, backache, uncomfortable, contractions, stretch marks (ahh no!)

What I miss: Nothing right now, just so glad Bailey is healthy!

Cravings: Oreos

Best moment this week: Knowing that for now we are still good to go and Bailey can keep cooking in there!

What I am looking forward to: Seeing Dr. E today and finding out how things are looking

Dad and Big Sister: Mark has been great at helping cook dinners and take care of Ashlynn.  Ashlynn is now a full time walker!
