Update!

It's been awhile since I have given an update, so I figured I had a free moment and would now do so. I am currently 33.5 weeks pregnant. So far, everything has been going great. The dr. said my blood pressure is good, my weight is good, Andrew is looking good, and I tested negative for gestational diabetes. I couldn't have asked for a better pregnancy thus far. I have the common pregnancy complaints as far as back hurting, can't get comfortable at night, uncomfortable sitting/standing for a long period of time, tired, hungry a lot, etc. But again, I couldn't have asked for a better pregnancy. When people ask me how I'm doing or feeling, I just smile and say fine. :)

I had Hailee at 38 weeks, so I'm really hoping that Andrew will come around the same time as Hailee did. Hailee seems really excited for Andrew to come. The other day, at a friends house, she had a babydoll under her shirt almost the whole playdate. She gives 'him' hugs and kisses. I know they are going to have a great bond. I can't wait to see them two together.

Right now in Hampton Roads, the hospitals have a policy where no one under 18 is allowed to visit. I am having such a hard time with this policy. I really really want Hailee to be able to come up to the hospital to see Andrew. I don't know how I'm going to cope the whole time in the hospital w/o seeing her. If that policy is still in effect when I have Andrew, I'm going to see if we can get out of there earlier...that is assuming that Andrew and I will be healthy and fine. I know other mom's who have more than one kid have been able to leave the hospital early as long as everything is ok. So, I don't know. We will see.

My next appt is on the first of February. I will be having an ultrasound to see how big Andrew is, which I am stoked about. I will keep you updated!
