17 Weeks Down!

Wow, it is really crazy to believe that we are already through 17 weeks of this pregnancy! 

We went to the Dr. today, our normal OBGYN, Dr. Limosnero for our weekly check up.  The babies are doing GREAT!  They have really moved around and shuffled it up a bit since our check up last week.  They were just all over the place and Dr. Limosnero was challenged a bit determining who was who and getting a good shot at their hearts so that we could get a good beats per minute(bpm) count.  Our girl was at 144 bpm and the boys were at 153 and 155 bpm, which is just perfect.

She decided since Katie's cervix looked so good last week with Dr. Zaretsky, she would skip a cervix measurement this week and just do one next week.  We were cool with that, our next appointment is next Friday.  Katie has been having some headaches on and off all week, the Dr. didn't seem overly concerned but she does want to know if they get any worse.  The meager amount of Tylenol that she can take helps but doesn't completely cure the headaches.

Katie has been on Spring Break this week and has really been taking it easy.  We had a wonderful visit with her folks in Mason last weekend at the ranch.  It was great to see Paul, Judy, Heather and Wes!  I was glad that Katie had the chance to really relax and take a load off this week, I think it will pay off down the road.  We made it out to dinner with friends last night and then to a Parenting Class that we are taking at church.

We are going to start getting some ideas for the nursery together and a list of wants/needs compiled as well.  We're going to start looking at stuff in stores while Katie is still mobile and able to not be confined to a bed or a couch!  We've got a long list of errands to run this weekend!

A continued HUGE thank you to all our friends and family for all the thoughts and prayers for Katie and our babies!  We love you all!

  1. Great to hear all is going well for all. Can't wait to hear the names of the little girl and the boys. Jack would be good for one of the boys. We'll keep the prayers going for y'all.
