Carmen update: Carmen seems to be doing better. She still has random low-grade fevers but we can get them down with cool washcloths so I doubt they are related to an infection. Since starting Carafate, we haven’t seen blood in her feeding tube. Carmen is now on a diet! At her 3 year old well visit, she was a whopping 41 lbs. So, she is now getting 400 calories per 24 hours. I hope we can slim her down some as she is c-h-u-b-b-y and getting harder and harder to carry.
I am now 20 weeks along. Half way there! This Thursday, we find out if we are having a boy or a girl. I have been having a lot of contractions this weekend so I am going to call the doctor in the morning. They are most likely just Braxton Hicks but I would like to know for sure.
I asked Dave to take some pictures of me since I am now 20 weeks. Lauren asked to take pictures too and she took this one!
OH…to be that tiny again! lol Keeping you all in our prayers. Thinking of you always, Oralea and William
Hi Oralea! You are going to be “that tiny” very soon!
Hoping to hear that you had a baby this week!
OMG Lana, that’s one cute belly! I am really happy for all of you!
Glad Carmen is doing better! ^^
kisses,
Juliana
Can’t wait until Thursday!
Lana – I contracted a TON with all 3 pregnancies – and everything was fine – I had an irritable uterus – lol (thats really what it’s called too)
But glad your getting checked out
Thinking of you!
Yep, the doctor said the contractions are not causing any problems as of yet. I had contractions at about this point with Lauren but these are way more uncomfortable. He said to take it easy. I will make sure Dave knows about that part- me laying on the couch sounds good!
Hi there Lana, I will let the girls tell you how cute your belly is
) I will just say I am glad you and the baby are healthy. God bless. In Christ, Joe
Yep, that’s a super cute belly. I too can’t wait for Thursday. I think I noticed God’s handprint in this picture.
What a fantastic picture. Lauren has a future as a photographer!!
