Babyo #3

I thought that I would give quick mention of the newest coming member of the vanBreda family. Babyo is now 17 weeks old and growing. Babyo is fully formed (eyelids and brows, functioning bladder) and is now going to spend its time getting bigger.

Exciting news is that I can now feel the baby moving! This is my favourite part. I still sleep on my belly (for as long as I can) and that is when I can feel best the baby moving and rolling around. Steve has tried to feel too, however baby is too small.

We have also heard the baby's heartbeat and have another midwife appointment next week. We are forgoing the ultrasound with this baby unless necessary - so no cute picture to send out. I feel ok about that since Nadine's ultrasound picture was so scary. It was fun to see her moving around with those tiny toes? and fingers? or spinal cord? or was that her kidney?

Anyway, babyo is good and happy. I am doing well and feeling less and less tired - bedtime is now 10!
Have a great week all!

Sarah.

I'm glad to hear that all is going well with Babyo! Is that what Reuben and Nadine call him/her too?
Keep us posted! It's so interesting to hear about the developments of our new little one!
