25 weeks

So today's doctors appointment went well again. Once again my cervix looked nice and long. And Caden is growing and growing. Not to mention kicking and kicking. lol





He was moving around alot during the sono and it was so neat to see on the screen. We got a couple of good pictures....not as many as last time. We did get a pretty good 3D one. The lady that does my sonos said that it looks like he has a cute little nose and chubby cheeks! lol I also had my glucose testing done today so hopefully the results from that will come back good. So far my blood pressure is staying normal....another good thing. My doctor also said that we will start cutting back on the sonos every two weeks. The point of those were to keep an eye on my cervix and since it is not shortening at all.....he feels we can slow it down a little bit. I will still continue to go in every week for my shot....and I will still continue to see him every two weeks. He also wants to start me on steroid shots in a couple of weeks for the baby. Because of my history....he is trying to take all precautions just in case of preterm labor. Therefore....the steroid shots will help Caden's lungs develop faster just in case I go into labor early. I can't tell you how good it feels to have a doctor that is taking all precautions. It makes us feel like we have a fighting chance this time. So that pretty much sums up my doctors visit.....and of course I walked out with a huge smile on my face. Here is a picture of our little man.....I personally think he looks like Mike so far....What do you think??

On another note.....we have started working on Caden's room. We still have alot we want to do....plus more furniture to be added....but so far I really like the way it looks. Here are a few pictures of what we have done so far....I hope my little Rocker dude knows how much love is going into this room. I have gone in there a couple of times and just sat on the floor looking around. A year ago we were preparing it for a little girl.....and now a boy. It makes me want to cry when I sit there and think about how close we are getting to him being born. I know for many 25 weeks means you have a long way to go still. But 25 weeks for us means our baby finally has a chance of survival if something goes wrong. Not to mention the fact that I really dont think I will be going full term with this baby.....so really....he will be here before we know it....and I cannot wait for that day! So here's a few pictures of what we have done so far....once it is completely done I will post more....
