Fundus fun
I had another tummy check today and I'm measuring big (ya think?) I forgot to ask the Dr. what I'm measuring but I'm guessing it must be at least a 2-3 week difference as he wants me to have an ultrasound to check baby's growth. That will be August 7th. I hear 3rd trimester ultrasounds are pretty unreliable so I'm not getting too excited that my due date will change.
Hopeful sadness
I have had 3 friends recently miscarry there precious little ones and several others who have also said goodbye to their children along the way. I'd like to share the lyrics to this song - I can't help but think of them. I'm glad that each of them have a personal relationship with God because His promises are true...He is working everything together for their ultimate good.
Glory Baby- by Watermark
Glory baby you slipped away as fast as we could say baby…baby.. You were growing, what happened dear? You disappeared on us baby…baby.. Heaven will hold you before we do Heaven will keep you safe until we’re home with you… Until we’re home with you…
Miss you everyday Miss you in every way But we know there’s a day when we will hold you We will hold you You’ll kiss our tears away When we’re home to stay Can’t wait for the day when we will see you We will see you But baby let sweet Jesus hold you‘till mom and dad can hold you… You’ll just have heaven before we do You’ll just have heaven before we do
Sweet little babies, it’s hard to understand it ‘cause we’re hurting We are hurting But there is healing And we know we’re stronger people through the growing And in knowing- That all things work together for our good And God works His purposes just like He said He would… Just like He said He would…
BRIDGE: I can’t imagine heaven’s lullabies and what they must sound like But I will rest in knowing, heaven is your home And it’s all you’ll ever know…all you’ll ever know…

Hello 3rd trimester!
Other than the 2 kidney stone episodes, the 2nd trimester was wonderful! I'm still pretty comfortable and love to feel our little one kick, punch and jump around. Since week 26 we've been able to see baby moving from the outside-very alien-like-so amazing! Cravings-just ice cream and shave ice. I passed the glucose test but am still anemic so increasing the iron supplements-my poor stomach, they are harsh! My next Dr.'s appointment is in about 3 weeks. After that I will start having appointments every 2 weeks. Baby weighs two and a quarter pounds and measures 14.8 inches from the top of head to heels. Baby can blink his/her eyes, which now sport lashes. I have really been feeling "girl" lately, but we'll see! Either way we feel so blessed!
