26 Weeks and counting......

Here we are on the eve of 26 weeks pregnant.  This week we see the pediatric cardiologist.  I hope for nothing more than good news.  If baby Amir's heart is good we have a better chance of coming home a few days after birth and skipping the NICU stay!  We have already had 2 fetal echo's that were normal so I can find no reason in my head that this one should be any different. 

Shopping for baby things is kind of scary to me still but I did break down this weekend and buy 2 outfits and some crib shoes for him because I am going to bring him home.  I also completed a gift registry at Babies R Us.  I won't be having a shower before he is born but hope to plan a meet and greet after he is born.  Kind of like a welcome party. 

Today I sent an email to Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, they offer photography at the hospital in situations like mine, and of course balled my eyes out the entire time I typed it.  But just in case something happens it is important to me to have pictures of as much as we can.

I have been sleeping much better and even had a dream the other night about Amir and he was at home with his family <3 right where he belongs.  Even with all the extra fluid around Amir I am not uncomfortable.  I feel him move a lot.  Last night was the "super moon"  I am not really superstitious but of course had a fear of labor or something else crazy so I was up a lot and so was Amir.  Thankfully nothing eventful happened here with us!  Adrianna and I love to sit and watch him roll around in my belly, kind of has become our new pass time.  I am hopeful that I can still tolerate the extra fluid in the end though because that is likely what determines the day I have my c-section. 

~ Fingers double crossed for our appointment on Thursday, and as always any thoughts or prayers are always appreciated ~
