Week 23

Well, sister, we are halfway there! God has done some amazing things in the past five months. He has completely changed my life, in terms of schedule, and changed my heart, in terms of submission to Him! It has been quite a trip, and though I haven't enjoyed every second, I'm grateful for it!

My thyroid is still giving me problems. I still suffer from some of the effects of having a thyroid on crack. But, medically speaking, my pregnancy is perfect. All my numbers are great, and everything looks good. The doctors reviewed your ultrasound and you look perfect!! In fact, at my last appointment, the NP laughed because you are growing much faster than you should, even without a thyroid problem! I was 23 weeks, but my tummy measures at 26 weeks. Way to go girlfriend! You are going to be strong--you've already learned that you'll have to be to fit in around here!!

In addition, at my last appointment (5 months or 23 weeks), I am still one pound under my beginning weight! I'm so excited about that. The NP assured me that pound was all you!!

We have another blood test on Wednesday this week, and then in a couple of weeks, we have the glucose test. But praise God, things are going smoothly!! I love you sister!!
