I'm officially at 28 weeks as of Sunday. The baby's been growing well and kicking like crazy. I've been reading books to it at night. We got a few baby books for Christmas. One has a squeaking duck and one has a button that has giggling kids. It seems to like the sounds. Baby should weigh somewhere around 2 1/4 pounds and should measure around 14.8 inches now. Marc's been saying goodnight to it too and it seems to like his voice as it responds with a few kicks.
We have an appointment on Thursday and can't wait to see what the heart rate is now. Our first appointment, month 3, showed a fetal heart rate of 160. Month 4 was 150. Month 5 was 140 and month 6 was 142. We've had people say it must be a girl, while others say those numbers show a boy. It's getting harder to wait, but is still something good to look forward to.
Tonight Marc and I put together the baby's bassinett. We've been slowly setting parts of the house aside as baby areas. Janelle's girls, Whitney and Mariah, were here this last weekend and helped me get some cleaning and organizing done. It was a good weekend.
Once I get my camera disc figured out, I'll get a picture up of my belly at 7 months. Take care everyone and thanks for the emails and calls.
