27 weeks 3 days pregnant

Hi all! Everything is going just great we have made some huge strides in the nursery over the last week, being snowed in for five days with no power left us with lots of project time! Unfortunately it also left us with a lot of yard clean up, boo! Baby boy Knapp must be getting so big because he is EVERYWHERE in my tummy, lol! Daddy will be watching him move and say how can he be over there too, but his is. We have an ultrasound scan on Monday the 30th, and I am so excited to see how fat he has gotten in the last ten weeks! I will add in some nursery project progression pictures here and the latest belly shot! Love to all from our family to ours :)

Doctor Appointment Update

So the 24 week appointment went just great! I had to talk Jeremy into not going because he was at school which is like three towns away and it seemed so silly to have him drive up here for a 10 minute apt which they literally are nowadays, so he reluctantly agreed finally!

Anyway, about baby- He is measuring right on schedule and is currently head down! The midwife said at this point he is likely to stay that way so that was a bit of good news. I finally got the nerve up to ask how much weight I have gained, and found out that since they weighed me at my first apt I have only gained 10 lbs. I was stoked to hear that! I will keep the gym visits and healthy eating up and hopefully this pregnancy will be the best one yet!

I was told that regardless of what I am able to keep my blood sugars at, I am not going to be able to birth this baby at the birthing inn, that was kind of a bummer but once I started thinking about it it might not be too bad. To have a baby in the inn you have to leave 6 hours after the birth and that did not appeal to me right from the start. I will be having him at the same hospital as my other two perfect boys and that is going to be just fine. This is a Catholic Hospital and is very easy going allowing for water births and everything so that is all I really need.

Anyway I am surely forgetting a ton of stuff but this is my update for now! Thanks for stopping by!

24 Weeks along and lovin' it!

So this pregnancy is so great, I am just loving every minute of it. Will I be saying that in another 6 weeks or so, maybe not, but for now I am carefree! Tomorrow we have our 24 week appointment we will be 24 weeks, 1 day so that should be fun. We only have 112 days to go and with the holidays in the rear view mirror, full speed ahead on operation Nursery! We have a ton to do!
