Week 18


I feel as though it is only fitting that the week of Thanksgiving, Makayla is the size of a sweet potato. (My favorite dish for Thanksgiving!)
This should be both a good week, but an emotional week none the less.
We will get to see Makayla in all her glory on Tuesday when I have my anatomy scan. My Mom is going to go with me because she has never seen an ultrasound (my brother and I were adopted) and she is so excited to go. Of course, we will be confirming that Makayla is still a girl.
I only have to work on Monday this week which I'm super excited about. I need a break to catch up on my sleeping and get some things in order for Makayla.
It will be so nice to have my parents around for a week! They are getting here in about 2 hours and will be here till Friday morning, when they will head back to TX.
Even though I'm super excited about Makayla, Thursday will be the EDD of the twins. I know it will be an emotional day and that I need to focus on Makayla and what we have, vs. what we lost, but it's very hard not to play the what if game. I can't believe it's been 32 weeks since we lost them. The time has flown by. I will be glad though when the day is over, because that will be it for having to pass estimated due dates for lost babies for us.
Here's to a good week!

  1. I'll be thinking about you Thursday. I know how hard that is. My own EDD passed in September. I was pregnant again at the time, but it still hurt. You can't help but think of all the "what ifs." Anyway congrats again on your new baby girl and Happy Thanksgiving :)
