23 Weeks

23 WEEKS!!

I had an appointment and I'm happy to say everything is going good.

I don't know if i mentioned this last time but my original OB has retired and I have been to see a few other OB's and haven't felt every confident in them. I decided to stick with the OB who delivered Sophia, he is in the same office and knows about my history with preterm labor.

The last time I went to see him, he didn't give me any useful information. I was really worried that he wasn't taking this seriously, so the past 4 weeks I have been writing down any question big or small to ask him at our appointment. 

So today was great because I got some questions answered!

He has put me on light bed rest that means, no shopping, cooking, house cleaning, safe to say we are taking it very easy from here on out. I feel good about that decision because I am exhausted and 

feeling huge!

I will start seeing my OB a lot more often now, we are going back in 3 weeks, 2 weeks, and than every week.  In two weeks we are going to see a specialist for high risk pregnancy's, I'm nervous about but relieved to see someone who specialises in this. We will be getting ultra sounds every time we go now, to check that everything is going good.

 

We are hoping to make it to make it as far as 34 week, I am crossing all my fingers and toes that we can make it to at least 36 weeks.  

So far the pregnancy has been pretty easy and low key but with this appointment everything is becoming very real and very fast! Today at the appointment he measured my belly and it is measuring 33 weeks, 10 weeks ahead of where I am, so I think its safe to say that it is only going to get harder. I can't believe we could only have 12 more weeks till we meet these sweet babies!

 

The babies are moving and kicking like crazy, its so different than with Sophia I had a rest for little kicks but now if one baby is moving the other starts moving.
