25 Week Appointment

Thomas and I went to my 25 week appointment today and all is well. Baby Harvey put on quite a show for our OB, moving around the entire time and making it really difficult for the doctor to keep the Doppler machine in range to detect her heartbeat. As soon as the doctor got the wand in the right place, Baby Harvey squirmed again! Our doctor was a little amazed by how active she is...

I'm generally feeling very good these days and have lots of energy. Baby Harvey is starting to give me a little pain in my ribs though. She is big enough that she is pushing my other organs up into my ribcage and putting too much pressure there. But I don't have any other aches and pains yet, so I'm doing okay for now.

Thomas and I are looking forward to the next week as Christmas approaches. We will be going home to Alabama to show off my round belly to the Neeland clan and to see Liz & Dave for one last visit before their big wedding weekend in February. I am also getting so excited about the baby shower that my friends are going to throw on the 27th!
