"A little ahead of schedule'



We had a doctors appointment last Monday at 28 1/2 weeks. Ben is doing great and enjoyed all the Chick-Fil-A chicken biscuits I ate in the states. He is weighing in at a hefty 3lbs. 2oz. and longer than normal. The doctor said, "He is a little ahead of schedule!" So, as a nurse, I was a little concerned but I think that he is just going to be a tall guy like his dad. I had my glucose tolerance test this week and everything was normal so that is great! I have to admit, I did enjoy all of that good food in America! But my weight is also within the normal parameters. If you were Arab you would ask me how much weight I had gained...there is nothing off limits here. Thought you might enjoy belly pictures and the difference 3 and a half weeks can make! The top picture is from last week and the bottom picture with Ashleigh is at 26 weeks.

  2. you look sooo cute Sara!!! love that baby bump and I enjoyed the cultural post as well.

    We had to attend my husband's grandad's funeral 2 weeks ago and an older lady came up to me and told me that Tess ( I had her in the sling during the funeral) would get colic being out in this weather! ( it was not even that cold and I had her nice and warm next to me!!)

  3. Wow! That baby is growing! I remember when I was pregnant with Ada that one day I woke up and my belly was much bigger than the night before when I went to bed. Babies definitely have their growth spurts.
