Abigail is now 28 weeks and she is due in 84 days (if she is born on October 14th which we would love :))!! The nursery is really almost finished and my mom came over this past Sunday and helped me get the loft area where I will most likely be hanging out and breastfeeding ready, then it will probably become the playroom. We put a bunch of stuffed animals that I have had since I was a little kid all around. Then we moved all of the baby bouncers and walkers to the basement. Mom brought over a bunch of my old toys such as my absolutely gorgeous and amazing dollhouse (she cannot play with that for a long time!!) as well as my Barbies and Cabbage Patch Dolls. It is fun and now I am so thankful we are having a girl so she can have all of this amazing stuff from my childhood that I loved. If she does not want it, that is alright too but atleast I have the option.
Being pregnant is pretty cool and it is absolutely one of the weirdest and cool things to feel this being in your belly kicking and squirming around. Abigail has a schedule already when she kicks the most. At 5am she wakes up with her daddy and squirms around for about 45 minutes. Then she usually wakes up around 9am when I eat breakfast and get going at work. Next around lunch she kicks a bit but at about 2pm she starts kicking so hard I think others can hear her kick the chair I am sitting in. Then she does some light kicking on my way home at around 5-6pm and then again at 10pm when Shawn usually reads out loud to her. That is when she kicks the most, when Shawn is reading. It is so cute and I cannot wait to see her in his arms.
Shawn has been out of town on work this week so I have not seen him for the past three days and I can hardly wait until I get home tonight and get to see him. Abigail is going to kick up a storm when she hears his voice.
In other news, the amniotic fluid has been a little bit low and so we were unable to do the 3-D ultrasound. The doctor says everything is okay and that the fluid is only slightly low and nothing to worry too much about. I have been eating really well and drinking probably close to 2 gallons of water a day because I am so darn thirsty. I am going back on August 10th to have another prenatal ultrasound to measure little Abigail's growth as well as the fluid and then we see the doctor on the 12th again. I think we will do the 3-D ultrasound again on the 19th so everyone can join in and see our little Abigail as long as her fluid levels have improved and everything is going well as I predict it will be.
Other than that life is good and I am counting the number of days until I do not have to work anymore. Right now, barring any issues, my last day will be October 2nd, which is only 72 days away!!!!!!!
