Chubby Cheeks

Brian and I went and saw the Perinatologist yesterday....Incase your wondering what that is, its a specialist that deal with high risk cases...They are truly incredible!
We are 30 weeks now with only 6 or 7 to go......Baby Shim ( No thats not going to be her real name, its just what we call her) is now 3 lbs 1 oz and growing like a weed!!! She is looking very good and measuring just a bit small but nothing they are worried about. Just another couple weeks until I get poked with a very, very large needle for the amniocentesis but Im sure Ill be more excited than nervous. I love any medical procedure even if its on me.
If you look closely you will see her eyes are actually open, How much chubbier do you think those cheeks can get in 6 weeks?

Her legs look like they are starting to have some meat on them

She kept sticking out her tounge out and wiggling it around, It was fun to watch

You wouldnt believe this but we werent trying to get pregnant.......After all the years of fertility treatments it took with our 1st baby I wasnt in the mood to do it all again.....I was back in school and determined to apply to the nursing program this semester.....I did not know I was pregnant for 9 1/2 weeks!!!! I cant even believe it still to this moment.....Im still in denial. Are you thinking of getting started again on the whole roller coaster?
