Lillian 24 weeks

HR: 141
Weight:-5
Cravings: SUGAR and more SUGAR!! Isn't that what babies are made of!

I am so shocked that I am already 24 weeks pregnant. Huge milestone in the NICU world. Offically viable! Of coarse we want her to stay put for 16 more weeks but this is the point where mommy starts to see babies in the NICU the same size as Lillian. We are so fortunate that things are still going great. This pregnancy has been a little harder on my body but I am hanging in there. Maybe it's because I am older or maybe because Brad is traveling alot and I am a full time mommy who knows but I am exhausted most days. I am having a lot of Braxton hicks contractions which I didn't have many of with Harper and still having trouble with the sciatic nerve issue . Some days it is really bad and some days I do great. Other than that I feel great. I have been working in Lillian's room. This week I cleaned out the closet of Harper's old stuff and organized the new stuff. I went through all of Harper's clothes and organized it all by dates so it is easy to use for the new baby. Wow ,these girls are so spoiled. So now we set up the furniture and ordered the bedding. I still need to take down Harper's old decals and take down the shelving but we are making progress slowly. I had my glucose test last week and passed with flying colors. YEAH... This means I can continue my sugar fest!!! And we had our follow up low placenta sono and my placenta has moved up so it is no longer a potential problem. As usual Lillian was so precious on sono. She had her hands in her mouth most of the time and in one picture she was sucking on her fingers. And we took Harper to this appointment and every time she would be loud, Lillian would move. This was the first appointment Harper had been to and it was a bit challenging but she was able to meet Dr. N for the first time since she was a newborn. Also Lillian is measuring 26.5 weeks in length which made us giggle a little. Brad and I are so short it surprises me that she is measuring tall for her age. Maybe she will be tall like Mimi and uncle Mike. Here are a few picture of our sweet girl and a few of her room so far. 24 week belly shot!
