8 weeks to go! We're at the homestretch! We had another good report at the doctor's appointment. The baby's heart rate continues to be great, and i'm measuring perfect. From my pictures, it doesn't look like my belly's sticking out much further (even though I can tell it is!), but the uterus is definitely growing upward and filling up my whole abdomen. I've been feeling the baby move all over now...way over on my sides, then up in my ribs. I love feeling the baby move in my belly, I'm really gonna miss that after it's born. I love to watch my belly suddenly get lopsided and then a big wave followed by a lump on the opposite side. I'm beginning to recognize body parts, like feet and the baby's butt. I continue to feel really good. My only complaints are heartburn, which I've gotten used to, and leg cramps. Holy cow, the leg cramps wake me out of a dead sleep! Speaking of sleep, that's getting a little more difficult, but not too bad. Just some aching in my hips and back. Jeremy's been so great with me and has taken really good care of me. I'm so thankful for such a wonderful husband. He always has my best interest and my comfort as priority. Please pray for us as we're traveling to NJ this weekend for a wedding, followed by a trip up to my parents house in NY. We'll have to make a lot of stops just to go to the bathroom and walk around, but we'll make it! Please also pray for our precious baby as it's growing rapidly and putting some fat on during these last weeks!

I remember those days. You look like you are doing great. We are praying for you and baby. Enjoy this time, even though you are probably a little uncomfortable, because when the baby comes there will be no sleep.
