week 27

I am in the last week of the second trimester!  Time has been flying by with this pregnancy.  The baby is the size of a head of cauliflower.  He may be able to recognize my voice by now.  And, he is able to blink and hiccup.  I haven't felt any hiccups yet but I do feel him moving quiet frequently.  I have another very busy boy on the way.

At my recent visit with Dr. Warner, the baby's heart beat was a strong 141 bpm.  He was measuring right on target for his size.  Mommy had the glucose test and the Tdap shot.  I passed the test just fine with mild discomfort from the sugary drink.  I wanted to run a marathon after about a half hour of downing the sugary orange cocktail.   But, my arm was sore for a week after the Tdap shot.  I cannot wait to meet my little munchkin!
