16 weeks and the day we found out the gender!
18 weeks 22 weeks
24 weeks
27 weeks

I am definitely horrible at taking pictures this pregnancy but I am trying my hardest! I think the fact that I was so small for so long made it hard to remember to take pictures. Literally until 22 weeks boy was stuck so low in my pelvis that you couldn't tell I was pregnant. Once he popped out I finally grew a belly, so the first 6 months were very small. My friends at church joked that I must not be pregnant then or that they wouldn't believe me until I had a belly, well now they believe me. But every time someone finds out I'm already 7 months pregnant they don't believe me either. I'm not sure why you are so small. Everything on the ultrasound measures the correct size. my uterus is measuring the right size.... its just not a huge belly. Granted I have 10 weeks left and this is when the big bulk up starts to happen but its just different. Aunt Lindsay is 9 weeks behind me with your cousin and is larger then me, and says comments all the time about it. Its really not a big deal. This is her FOURTH baby, its different. She is also bigger then me naturally and carries babies differently. Its OK! I was expecting to be bigger the second time around and who knows -- if I have more children I may get a HUGE belly with them. Its a part of life. I see the OB again next week and then we have appointments every two weeks until June. Which I think at this point that frequent of appointments it so pointless. I go in, the dr asks how things are going, and then we leave and repeat two weeks later. They don't check for dilation or take any more tests until June.
Today I am at 29 weeks. Its crazy to think that a month from today I went in to preterm labor and they stopped it and then 6 weeks from today I had Madison. I still have 10 weeks to cook this little man.
Do I feel ready? Slowly we are getting there. I have enough that if he came tomorrow we would be ok. I'm nervous for two kids, I really am. Dividing my attention is what I am really nervous about.
