Very late 22 week update

I finally went and scanned the ultrasound pictures and uploaded them, the link is on the left under the belly pictures link.

Pablo also was able to covert our ultrasound video it will be posted on the top of the blog for awhile, and there is also a permanent link on the left under the ultrasound pictures link.

I don’t think I ever posted about the last ultrasound. The tech was awesome. Super personable. She said the baby weighed 15 ounces and was measuring exactly where she should have been, 20 weeks 6 days. She said the baby was very photogenic and she had no trouble getting the pictures and measurements she needed. I think the pictures she got for us are awesome, they are so clear, I love it.

I finally went to the DMV Friday and changed my name on my DL. I started having it put on checks and cards as soon as we were married so its not like I’ve been using my madden name this whole time. I’m just not a fan of public departments so I’ve been putting it off.

We had our second Bra.dley class Sunday. We got a handout with typical procedures and things we can request while in the hospital, and we have a list of questions to ask our dr, which will hopefully make for a better more comfortable relationship, but if not she did mention she had a list of dr so maybe we will check them out. It is kind of late and my insurance company will not be too happy, but so far I’m not thrilled with the practice we have.

I realized this week that going to the gym with the goal of not getting as fat rather than actually getting trim is odd.

Next week I start training my replacements and I realize my notes are not so great. I’ve been meaning to work on them but felt like I had tons of time. Oh well I’ll just have to work on them as we go along.

We took the 22 week belly picture this weekend


22 weeks 140


“Monday” Updates

I’m not sure what is up with APA I don’t see their e-mail again this week. Last week it ended up showing up later on so maybe it will still come. In any case this is what WebMD says.

Pregnancy Week 23

From WebMD

Your baby measures about 8 inches from crown to rump and weighs almost 1 pound. His body is starting to look more like a newborn, but his skin is still wrinkled as more weight is to be gained. By now, there is no mistaking that you are pregnant and you have likely gained about 12 to 15 pounds.
