24 weeks pregnant/ baby girl

Sept 22 2013

Well this girl is growing and is very healthy.  We went to the Dr and had a great visit.  The boys and Drew came and they were so excited to see Anna on the screen moving around.  

She is 1.5 lbs now and is breach which is still normal for this stage.  My Dr. put me on magnesium (drinkable powder mix),  iron pill (well she got on to me for not taking them regularly), and I am still on prenatals.  I am totally off Zofran unless I just have a horrible day (which does happen sometimes). 

And I am finally in maternity pants.  I am lucky that some of my regular jeans had some expandability.   So I could wear them till my mother brought me some I had ordered.  Clothes this time around are totally different.  All my old maternity clothes are for the dead of summer (Kenya/MS).  So I do have some sweet friends that have let me borrow clothes.  
Anna was still a week ahead in measurements.  Which is how both boys measured throughout their womb time.  And we were able to get this sweet pic of her face.  She was actually sucking on her toes, her little feet were up by her face, well in between her face and the placenta in the pic.  

I can't wait to meet her, but will have to give her a little more time to cook.
