24 Weeks!

It feels like a big milestone to reach this point since it's often considered the point of viability, although of course I hope she doesn't come out for another 3 months as I don't want her to spend a long time in NICU if at all possible! She has been moving earlier and earlier in the day. She now starts kicking even when I am just first getting up in the morning so I won't call her a night owl any more, LOL. I'll have Paul take some belly photos in the next few days as I think it's been 4 weeks since the last ones were taken.

I am glad to be going home today as I miss my hubby!!! Plus I can't say eating almost all my meals alone at restaurants is that thrilling of an experience. I ate lunch with three friends from other colleges yesterday, but other than that I've been on my own. One thing I will miss from down here are the temps. On Tuesday when I arrived the difference wasn't that large between PA and GA, but since then the temps have gone down about 10 degrees in PA and up about 20 degrees here in GA so now the difference is about 30 degrees (75 down here and only in the low 40's in PA). Hopefully though the warmer temps will come to PA soon also. I love spring, especially when it's in the 60's and 70's.

Congratulations at reaching 24 weeks. I rememeber being relieved in both pregnancies when I reached the "point of viability." And it was just a few weeks later, in my pregnancy with Adam (at 27 wks), that I went into early labor (which thankfully was stopped as you know) and had to be on bedrest for the next 10 weeks. Not fun, but TOTALLY worth it, as you know from being under moderate restrictions yourself. We're still praying that your placenta previa corrects itself, and rejoicing over the growth of your precious daughter.
