28 Weeks

Baby J is now 3 lbs and 17 inches long (according to my books, the doctor hasn't measured that or anything). She is measuring my belly, and it is a little big right now, so he may actually be bigger than that currently. Countdown is 12 weeks!
On Sunday we went to our childbirth education class. Pretty graphic, but informative. Talked about relaxation and effacement and epidurals and toured the hospital. Then, we went to the doctor on Monday and had the gestational diabetes screening test (you just drink this juice that is like orange triaminic) and then they take blood to test your insulin and blood sugar, etc. Results are pending.
Like the big pile of baby stuff we're collecting in the office (the piles of stuff behind me in the close-up belly photo)? :)

27 weeks

So Mother's Day came and went. I got an iphone! And now that I have a camera again, I'm going to turn over a new leaf and start updating this thing.
We're now at 27 weeks. They say I'm now carrying a basketball, though I feel bigger.
We've now officially begun the 3rd trimester. 13 weeks to go and counting!
