2 Week / 18 Month Dr. Appt.

Today I took both boys for their well visits at the doctor.

Holy cow... what a different experience with two - thank goodness my mom was able to go with me. I don't think that I could've handled taking both by myself. Greyson cried the entire time that we were there and after Sayer got his vaccination he had crocodile tears as well! When the doctor told me that I could bring them both back together again for Sayer's one year appt. and Greyson's 6 month appt, I was thinking NO WAY! I think it will be easier to just take one at a time from now on!

As for the boys, Greyson is growing very well. He now weighs 8.6 lbs. as has gained a whole pound in just one short week. If he keeps eating as much as he does now he may catch up with Sayer! He has also grown 1.5 inches in just two weeks.

Sayer continues to be right on track... 97th percentile in both height and weight. He continues to grow and grow and grow. The doctor thinks that he'll be bigger than his daddy one day. I hope so!

Week 23 Doctor's Appt.

We went yesterday afternoon for our 23 week appointment.

Sayer's heartbeat is right on target and is very strong and my belly is measuring right where it should be... 24 cm. It's amazing to me how your belly measurement is in sync with what week of pregnancy you are in.

The biggest news that we received yesterday was that I had gained 10 pounds in 5 weeks! In the past I have gained around 2-3 pounds per month, so I had quite a jump at this appointment. She said that I was right on target with a 19 pound weight gain to date. I'm a bit nervous that I still have 17 weeks to go... hopefully that won't mean another 17 pound increase - YIKES!

I guess in the end, it really doesn't matter what I gain as long as I have a healthy little boy! My husband tells me that aside from a couple of key areas on my body, it doesn't really look like I have gained anywhere else. He is so sweet!
