Each day is a victory

Em • Tue, Aug 02

I'm hopefully leaving the hospital tomorrow after a preterm labor scare. I'm still 3cm dilated so the doctor doesn't want me to stand for more than 20 minutes at a time to keep pressure off my cervix.

I got to see my baby on ultrasound yesterday and asked for a picture of him since I haven't seen him in 9 weeks.

I'm tickled to death by his chunky cheeks and I can't believe he's already 3lbs 1oz at 29 weeks.

My goal at this point is to "stay pregnant". I have come to realize each day he stays in the womb is another day of victory for his success. I wanted to share his pics so here he is.

He sleeps all morning and stays up all night just like his daddy so the first pic is him snuggled up on his hands. The second pic I just wanted to share bc omg the cheeks lol.
