28 weeks! We made it!


This week we headed up to visit Dr. Wall and get a full growth analysis on baby.

To our surprise baby is a bit ahead of schedule and in the 90th percentile for growth. He is weighing in at around 3 lbs 8 oz!! A baby at this gestational age is on average 2 lbs 10 oz so we were happy to hear he is growing like a champ in there.

After checking my cervix the Dr. thinks that we are stable again this week so that is good news in our quest for a Christmas baby. We are getting pretty excited and have switched back to planning for baby mode. We have begun buying things and planning a nursery again. We are just elated we have made it this far. Dr. Wall still thinks little Bennett could show up any day now but we are hopeful we will get to a point where we can avoid as much NICU time at the hospital as possible.

Thanks again for everyones good thoughts. We know it was everyones thoughts and prayers that have helped us make it this far.
