So we had our 24 week scan and it was so good to see her again and see how much she has grown - wow! You can no longer see the full baby on the screen anymore - only parts of her! She is weighing about 650 grams and although doc is unable to measure her length anymore - the books say she is about 30 cm head to toe! We caught a beautiful shot of her face - its much fuller and bigger and looks like she looking straight at me! She was a lot more chilled today, she is also settling into more frequent and longer sleep cycles...as she wakes and moves around a little less then before. In the mornings when I wake up she also lets her presence be known with the most awesome pushes and punches :) she must know I am talking (thinking) about her now cause she has just started to move again!!
What a beautiful feeling to experience - I am totally besotted with you baby *SG* so is your father!! Doctor very happy with your progress - you are no longer lying breech and facing the right way and growing perfectly! Dr vdw wants me to stay on the progesterone till the end. I will go back for another scan in 4 weeks time. Dr gets so excited to see us and keeps saying "Well done - I am so happy!"
We have set full steam ahead with the nursery now...things finally starting to happen:) We have received a quote to have the walls plastered and down lights etc done - that will start next week, the cot and compactum are ready just waiting for the baby cupboard to get painted then we can collect it:) Yes *SG* you already need 2 cupboards for all your beautiful things - my girl you are so so spoilt already - everyone is so excited for you to arrive and cant wait to dress you up like a princess! You will definitely have at least 4 outfits everyday and I will be sure to change you that many times a day :):) You have so many different designer dummies - the cutest little ones I have ever seen...I just wonder if you will like your dummy - if you anything like your mommy - you will :) I had my dummy till I was 5 and even then I didn't want to let it go! *SG* you have everything of the best already my princess cause all we have ever wanted is you - God has blessed us more then we could ever imagine....and I just know He has big plans for your special little life! I have made a mural for your bedroom wall that says "I know the plans I have for you Summer-Grayce, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29 vs 11 You are already Jesus' princess! Jesus says "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you before you were born I set you apart" - you are going to be beautiful and unique in every way...I pray for God's favour over you all the days of your life!
We chose your name 4 years ago and when I read up the meaning of your name it said "warmth - love and protection of God - unmerited favour - divine favour and physical elegance" exactly how we picture you! happy, loving, friendly, beautiful, and with a heart after God's own heart! Your mommies name also means grace...my ouma named me that!
So hoping all things go as planed your bedroom will be ready to start getting ready at the end of November! So excited for that!! Your nana is coming to see us again at the end of November and for your baby shower! Its going to be a stunning beautiful time where all the people that love you can come together and laugh and celebrate you!
Mom's belly grows everyday :) I just love being pregnant with everything inside of me! I love the way my tummy looks - I don't even notice my scars anymore - the scars that I got in order to have you our miracle child! I just always knew and never stopped believing that you would grow under my heart in my belly! As many times as people would say you can always adopt...I just knew God was going to knit you in my womb! Thank you Jesus again and again and again for baby bloom in my belly.... :')
We love you 'Summer-Grayce Bloom'
xoxo
