25 weeks!

We just got back from our weekly ultrasound and everything is looking very good! They did Cooper's measurements and he's a week ahead in growth and weighing in at 1 lb. 13 oz!!! Almost 2 pounds :) The fluid looks great meaning that nothing is leaking out of my uterine rupture scar. The plan continues to do the c-section and hysterectomy at 34 weeks. We'll also do another round of steriods at 32 weeks in preparation for d-day.

I went to a c-section class last night since I was knocked out during my c-section with Lily and learned some good information about what to expect before and during the surgery. I know about the after part expect the having to take care of a newborn while recuperating! I found myself allowing myself to get excited about the day that we will meet our little man.

We've officially been here a week and honestly this week has flown by! I can only hope that time continues to move quickly and that our little family can proceed on with our lives at home...

9 more weeks to go!!!!! I'll have my hubby scan the u/s pics from today sometime this weekend so that I can post new pics of Coop and I'll do my 25 week pic this weekend, too :)

  3. I came over from All The Little Ponies. The name of your blog got my attention. I have been following baby loss mothers. I have a blog called For Your Tears where I send handkerchiefs out to women. Anyway, I just love when the Rainbow babies come. I pray for you and your son. I look forward to meeting him. Take care & God Bless.
