Pregnancy #2 - 31 Weeks

Well it's official... I am 7 months pregnant and in the single-digit countdown for weeks left to go. Technically it's 9 more weeks, but since we're doing the schedule c-section 1 week early, for all practical purposes it's only 8 weeks to go! We are now scheduled for the c-section for April 27th at 7:30am. So barring Abby coming early or other emergency c-sections forcing a reschedule we now have a general idea of the birth date!

Abby measures over 16 inches long and weighs about 3.3 pounds. She is heading into a growth spurt. She can turn her head from side to side, and her arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath her skin. She's moving tons - much more than Owen did. This makes me a tad nervous - because Owen's super active, so what does that mean for Abby? Yikes! I was hoping for a mellow one. :)

I'm feeling great. The swelling I had with my first pregnancy hasn't started yet and it had by this time with Owen, so cross your fingers that we'll avoid it this time. I'm actually tracking 4lbs lighter so far this pregnancy but with a bigger belly (in my opinion). My nesting instincts are kicking in full force, manifesting in baking (I never bake and I've made pies, cookies, cupcakes, etc. in the last month or so). I'm also hitting the organizing-like-crazy stage. We've finally organized our office! I also tackled Owen's clothes and Abby's clothes/closet/drawers this past weekend. This coming weekend I'm tackling the garage.

Here come the pics...
