23 weeks 3 days!

I made a little video of our pregnancy pictues! Check it out!We are approaching our first milestone, 24 weeks! The Dr. said once we get to 24 weeks, the babies are viable. Then we press on towards 34 weeks! Here's this weeks news... Chris had a Dr.s appoinment on Wednesday. She did really well. Mary and her mom took her. She was uncomfortable but managed to get through the exam. All the babies look great! Heart rates are good and they are all a little over 1 lbs. Our baby girl is a little smaller. Not small, just a little smaller than her brothers. They also measured Chris' cervical length and the Dr. said it was great and the best news all day! It means she is showing no signs of preterm labor. All is well! Mom and babies are very healthy. Mental health status... Much better for both Chris and I. Since the heat wave has broken a bit, we are able to get out a little more. My mom took her out for a pedicure and lunch, her mom and Mary took her out (Thanks Mary) and today we walked Brick Plaza. (well, I pushed her in the wheel chair). We went to Barnes and Noble for new reading material, had a treat from Starbucks and then walked down to the Dollar Store. It may not seem that exciting for everyone else but Chris said she felt like a normal person today! I actually went to a bar on Friday night! Okay.... so I was meeting my parents there..whatever! : ) My brother was singing at Maggie's so we all met up for a drink. It was great to be out and just chill. Weight gain status.... Chris is doing well. She is up 43 lbs. She could use another 6 - 10 lbs by week 28. We are trying to kick up the calories intake again. I just got her some Ensure Plus. It's better than the Kellogg's protein shake. The Ensure has 330 calories, 11 grams of fat and 15 grams of protein. Weight loss status... I am back on track with Weight Watchers. I stopped going for a few weeks and started to eat the babies cookies and ice cream... nooooooooo! It was time to get back on program! So far so good. We have another appointment this Thursday. I am so excited to see the babies! Stay tuned for the next post! Love Always, Kelly, Chris and the Babies
