Pick of the Week: Airawen Alexandra 29 weeks

Here are the latest pictures of my little girl! She uses my ribs as treadmill, my intestines as a punching bag, and gives me the worst acid reflux, and I can't wait to meet her! She is now in the 90th percentile in weight weighing in just over 3lbs, and they said she looks good. We only have about 10 weeks to go and the next two weeks are going to fly by with the holidays. I moved my office from the seminary to home today, which was a huge blessing and an amazing realization of how encouraging and supportive my employers are of Tim and I adding to our family. It is also amazing that I can just type in a couple of things and see all my network drives for work, in about 10 seconds! I love modern technology.

Pick of the Week: Airawen Alexandra 20 Weeks

We went in for our 20 week check up yesterday. Arie Alex looks good! No more placenta abruption, no more placenta privia, and she is 11oz! She is in the 34% range on her weight, so we are going back in 8 weeks for another ultrasound to make sure her growth is on track. It was WONDERFUL having a check-up that was so positive. Thanks for everyone who has been praying with us for the health of our little girl!

Pick of the Week: Baby Mohr 15 weeks

So we had a little scare with the baby last week. There is a small placental abruption, a condition where part of the placenta has pulled away from the uterine wall. I went on bed rest for about a week, and went back to the doctor on Wednesday. The abruption is healing and they said everything should be fine. I just have to take it easy, no bull fighting or sumo wrestling in my near future. Although this experience has been a little frightening, so much good is coming out of it. We've gotten to see the baby a lot lately due to the formal ultrasounds to check the health of the baby, (pictures below) and we have been met with "a hurricane of love." (quote from Elizabethtown) Family and friends from church and work are loving on us well. Bringing us food and movies, sitting with me while I was "chained" to the couch, and tons of calls and emails. If I haven't gotten thank you in person yet, "THANK YOU." Tim and I feel very loved and connected. We hope to be able to pour out the love on others the way we have been loved this last week and half.
