New Due Date

This past Thursday evening we had our second birthing class. We are learning a lot about laboring and some good relaxation techniques also. I've been taking my swissball to class and have learned some good comfortable positions and stretches to use even now. So far its been worth our time.

Before we got to the class I had my regular check up with the Midwife. This time we went over my last blood work and the ultrasound I had on March 11th. Everything is going great! They could see all the chambers of his heart, all his organs, his spine and the right amount of amniotic fluid. Then he weighed 11 oz. also. The interesting thing is that the ultrasound showed that the baby and my uterus were 7-9 days farther ahead then we originally thought. If it was only a couple of days they wouldn't have changed the due date, but since it is obviously more than that I now have a new due date.... July 30th. That just so happens to be my mom's birthday. We'll see what happens. So on Thursday I went from being 22 weeks along to being 23 weeks along. I know that it just changed by a week, but it makes me feel as if the baby is coming so much sooner! The sound of August seemed farther away then July. None the less we are super excited to hear that all is well with our little guy. We praise God and continue to thank Him for this amazing blessing and miracle.

I'm just now putting this update on the blog because I was super exhausted Thursday evening after our class and worked all day yesterday. By the end of the week I'm pooped! Yea for weekends!!
