This place is very similar to Guri Do Sul. Great side dishes (Fried Bananas!)I’m 26 weeks now and just had another check-up. I’m feeling great (besides being tired) and Brooke and I continue to grow! I still don’t know how big Brooke is right now, but her kicks are getting stronger so that’s a good sign. Her heartbeat was 152bpm. The doctor said he was pleased with my progress. I go back on July 6th for another check up and glucose test and hopefully at the next appointment we will get another ultrasound!
Love,
Brooke and her Mommy!
Yesterday, after a long day of being tired and feeling really pregnant, I just wanted to come home and relax. I’ve gained about 17 pounds so far, so a lot of my clothes don’t fit! I’ve been wearing my maternity jeans a lot (love them – thanks Michelle!), but sometimes I want to wear something more comfortable if I need to run out to the store or something. So, after I got home from work I walked into our room to find a jump suit outfit that Casey just bought me! How sweet is that??? And right next to that was the cutest outfit for Brooke! It was a plaid skirt with a Winnie the Pooh shirt that said “I picked a daisy for you”! How perfect is that??? Oh, and he also had a bottle of Tums on my nightstand since I keep getting heartburn. Wow!!!
I send Casey to the store to get cat litter and tell him he has to change Daisy’s litter box (I can’t while I’m pregnant) and he does it and buys presents for his wife and daughter!!! Yep, I’d say that he is a wonderful husband!
I love you, Casey!!!
I’m just sitting here at work watching my stomach as Brooke kicks! After she kicks I poke my stomach a few times and she kicks back! That’s just so cool!!!
I just got back a little while ago from the doctor’s office. This was just a regular appointment (no ultrasound). But, I still love going because I get to at least hear Brooke’s heartbeat! Becky, the nurse, was having a little trouble for a second finding the heartbeat, but then it came in strong at 150 bpm. I don’t think Brooke likes going to the doctor because just like last time she kept trying to hide. I told the doctor about a few of the things I’ve been feeling (pain in my side, Braxton Hicks contractions and being so tired), but he said all that is normal and there’s not anything to do about them. Besides those few things, I feel absolutely great! I love being pregnant and feeling Brooke move all around, which she’s doing now! Dr. Kirshon said he wants to start seeing me every 2 weeks so my next appointment is on June 16th. He said it’s just because I’m high risk since I have MS. Having my appointments only 2 weeks apart now is just a reminder that it’s getting close to Brooke getting here!
Love,
Brooke’s Mommy!
