March 13th is the date and the countdown is on! I can't believe its 4 weeks away! wow. I had my medical records from Roman printed and learned he actually came right on his first predicted due date(based on my missed period). Maybe Jude will be the same or a little earlier. My mom had my brother (the second child) at 34 weeks because her uterus hemmoraged- yuk! But as of today my OB says my cervix is nice and closed.great.Feeling: I would love to say I am feeling great but that would be a lie. I am pretty uncomfortable especially at night. Leg cramps and restless legs are the worst and I always want to sleep on my back....
Weight Gain: 26 pounds..I only gained 23 with Roman. It is very intresting as I feel like I am in better shape through this pregnancy. What is everyone elses experience with weight gain and the second child? I hope it doesn't mean Jude is going to be bigger than Romans 7 12
Working Out- I am still doing the same things but trying to take some long walks too..the impact is supposed to help you dilate and you don't get that on an elliptical or stepper...
Cravings: Smoothies and ice- especially sonic ice..and those vanilla creme sandwich cookies..yum!
Aversions: Right now I can't look at an egg or a veggie burger
We are very excited and I am trying to finish our final prepartions. Roman is geting used to the idea and says things like "Baby Jude is going to sit right here." and "Baby Jude is my brother" and "Roman is a brother"- that makes me laugh...
I can't wait to meet this little boy and see him interact with his brother and his daddy...

Oh, weight gain....here is my story:pre babies I weighed 115 lbs. Reyse was born 05/31/00 I gained 65lbs..yes thats right 65.(I like to think of it as water weight) Abigail was born 03/10/05: I gained 23 lbs. So different. You look great!
You look GREAT! We are praying for you everyday. What a blessing, although a busy blessing..., 2 boys are:)
wow - it's gone by quick! You look great and I just can't wait!
Just remember that muscle weighs more than fat...so maybe you've toned up and gained more muscle with Jude than Roman! You look great, nonetheless! I'm hoping that with the 3rd I'll gain even less weight than I did with #2 and that it will be smaller. Kendall was a bigger baby than Noah was...in weight and length! Who knows....every pregnancy is different!
you amaze me!!
Wow - you're almost there!
We'll be praying!
Love
