It's been quite a week! Started off with a small stomach bug, not drinking enough water, becoming dehydrated which caused my blood pressure to get too low. All that made me feel nauseous, so I didn't feel like eating. Not eating is not good when you should be eating for 2! I was weak for a few days, but have now gotten everything balanced back out. I am back to my normal 2nd pregnancy self - big belly, tiring somewhat quickly, and not sleeping well. Madeline moves so much and is so strong. I love feeling her move, although I have to admit, she's strong! Some of the kicks and pushes are uncomfortable. Madeline's most active time is between 10 and 11... my bedtime is 9:30. That should read - "My bedtime USED TO BE 9:30". Fortunately I've been able to get a nap in most days to make up for going to sleep late or not sleeping well.
At my 30 week visit this past Tuesday, Madeline measured right on target. Her heartbeat was good too. It seems like God is blessing us with another healthy girl! Chris and I were discussing her size. We're curious if she will be Hadley's size, bigger, or smaller? Of course I want her to be health most of all, but I hope she's not too much bigger for delivery purposes :D
Just over 9 weeks left. I'm getting more and more anxious to meet Madeline and hold her. Hadley has a certain level of understanding about the baby. An 18 month old's understanding. She'll rub my belly and say "Madeline". Sometimes she'll even kiss my belly! Tonight I showed Hadley a picture of herself around 4 months old. She pointed at it and said, "Madeline!" Chris and I both laughed and thought - well, they could look alike :D
