Well, another week another pound or five, as Melissa would say. No, really, she's the one that said that. I'm not dumb enough to say that about my pregnant wife. Our little passenger continues to move around only enough for her mother to feel her. Our little girl has been so jumpy lately that she has even startled Melissa into laughter. Melissa has noticed that she definitely moves around the most in the middle of the night.
Our little passenger weighs 1 lb and 1 oz as of last Friday. We actually had another ultrasound. Melissa's amniotic fluid was a tiny bit low at our 20 week ultrasound so they had us come back to check on it last Friday. Thankfully, everything was right on track when we went back on Friday. One great thing about having to go back was getting to see our little girl again! She was sitting (or floating?) with her little ankles crossed at one point causing a reaction of "awes" from the ultrasound techs and Melissa. They were also able to confirm again that we are indeed still having a girl! In fact, what the tech said was, "it's still a girl," to which I thought, "Was there a chance that was going to change in the last two weeks?" Still, reassuring to know that they didn't make a mistake the first time around.
Here is our prayer this week for our daughter comes from 1 John 5:18, "...that they keep your word and that your love will be perfected in them."
