So, a few nights ago we were able to celebrate 4 months of Pregnancy! We prayed together a lot that night. Thanking God for what we have already, and wondering how we are so blessed to have another miracle. It is hard for me to imagine life without Cade and now we have yet another joy coming to grow our family. What a true blessing it is and we are so grateful for our journey. It is one we will never forget!
This pregnancy has been pretty much the same so far as Cade's. I was sick different weeks in this pregnancy, but still sick about the same length of time overall. The sickness was a little more intense this time, and I did take Zofran for about a week, but that was it. I still have cramping and what I consider to be "stretching", but nothing bad to report. It has been a smooth pregnancy this round as well as with Cade! My belly has popped (although I have only gained 8 pounds with this pregnancy) and looks like a little basketball in the front. We read our book "Your Pregnancy Week to Week" each week and discover what is happening with our baby and my body. Only 5 months left! Wow, that sounds close....
So here are a few points to mention as I document month 4:
- 4 month Doc visit stats: BP- 96/66, Baby Heartrate- 146
- We completed bloodwork to check for any complications or birth defects, result will be in one week. Praying for a healthy, happy baby!
- Feb 15th is the scheduled sonogram to find out the SEX OF THE BABY
Here is what Baby Hall #2 is doing this week according to BabyCenter.com
"Get ready for a growth spurt. In the next few weeks your baby will double his weight and add inches to his length. Right now, he's about the size of an avocado: 4.5 inches long and 3.5 ounces. His legs are much more developed, his head is more erect than it has been, and his eyes have moved closer to the front of his head. His ears are close to their final position. The patterning of his scalp has begun, though his locks are not recognizeable yet. He has even started growing toenails. And, there is a lot happening inside as well! For example, his heart is now pumping about 25 quarts of blood each day, and this amount will continue to increase as your baby continues to develop."

I'm going to go ahead & call it: ITS A GIRL!!!!!!!! LOL!!! My guess is strictly based on the fact that you said your morning sickness was more intense this time. I cant believe you are 4 months already!!! WOW!!!!!
Oh Baby Hall #2, we love you so! We are thrilled at the surprise you came so soon, you are blessed beyond anything or anyone you could ever imagine. You have so many people that adore your little "avocado" body already! Can't wait to meet you in July!
