25 weeks and counting!
Hello everyone!
Just an quick update that we had our 25 week follow up yesterday and the vital stats are as follows:
Baby heart rate: 147
Mom's weight gain: 21 (ahhhh) pounds!!
Dad's weight gain: undetermined...
The newest news is that I have started to have nerve and muscle ripping pain along the front of my abdomen especially at the top where it often feels like I am being singed with a branding iron -- I suppose a little more pleasant than that since there is no smell of burning flesh -- but I assure the pain is the same. Luckily my Dr. said not only is this normal as my nerves and muscles begin to stretch and rip to allow room for baby -- but that it will only get worse!!! Thanks goodness only 4 more months of this to look forward to!
On top of that she added another lovely gem of knowledge by informing me to expect a knife like pain searing from my uterus - through bajengo - into legs as the baby begins to kick my utuerus and bajengo. Man ... nothing like a sharp knife pain to look forward to ..... ahhhh.... the wonders of being 'with child'. She also said "expect to yell out in pain"... yeah really selling it to me doc!
On the plus side the little bugger is kicking stronger and stronger every day -- and either seems to love or hate lasagna as that spurred the largets kicking bout to date. An interesting factoid -- at this time the baby actually begins sucking in some amniotic fluid and can tatse what I eat -- I guess this is the time to get your kid used to the taste of veggies! He has more taste buds now that he will have for the rest of his life --- amazing!
Oh and names ..... we are narrowing down and the top 2 picks are Judah or Jonah. This way we can also call him J.C. for short (just like his boss --a jewish carpenter-- or like JC Chasez from legendary N'Sync fame!!)
On that note ... "Bye Bye Bye"!
Loon Out!
Oh and new belly pics are coming !
