We had baby Adam's 23 week appointment today, and he is doing great! His heartbeat was a strong 150, and he's moving around like crazy! Basically, if I'm still, he's moving. My only concern today was that I've already started having Braxton Hicks contractions. I wrote about having contractions at 36 weeks with Anna Rae, and I'm almost certain I wasn't having Braxton Hicks this early in my pregnancy with her. I talked to the doctor about it and she reassured me that since it's my second child everything will happen a little sooner, and since I know what it feels like, I can zone in on it more than I did with Anna Rae.
I hate to keep comparing pregnancies, because Adam's is just as unique and special as Anna Rae's was, but reading back at 23 weeks with her I can't believe I was able to still fit in a pair of my regular jeans! Maybe it's because they are more comfortable, but I started wearing maternity pants a while ago! haha There is no way I could get my belly in a pair of my regular jeans right now.
Well, the baby's moving, and so are we!!! We FINALLY sold our house, and are scheduled to close on June 3rd! Although it's a little bittersweet because that was the first house we ever bought, and share some good memories in that house, I'm so excited about the future! We are going to temporarily live in my mom's second house until we start BUILDING! I've already picked out the house, made changes to the plans, and can't wait to move into our dream house. But, we've decided to take one thing at a time, and are not going to start building until I've had Adam. Still, we are one step closer!!!
