24 Weeks!!

Things have been great!!! Week 23 went by without a hitch and here we are on week 24. This is a big week for me. I have read on the Internet that once a baby makes it till 24 weeks there is a good possibility they can be delivered and survive. As always i am hoping preterm labor will not be an issue but if it is at least I an have some hope. My next goal will be 30 weeks.
I went for a cervix check last Friday and everything looked really well. I had my favorite u/s tech (Patty) and she even gave me a quick peek at Paige. Cervix was holding strong at 4.78cm and fluids around Paige looked good. She was jumping around so much that Patty was finding it hard to get what she needed LOL Anyway I thought I would need to go again this week but Patty and Dr White confirmed I am done for now YIPPEE..... They booked me for another cervix check and growth scan at 28 weeks and said to call if I had any concerns. I love that office, they are all so nice and on-time!! I have a short break from doctors for the time being which is nice. Our next appointment is just an OB check up at 26 weeks with Dr. Allen (which will be all of 10 minutes knowing her)
Saturday we got Paige's room put together and DH put together the crib and glider. It looks like a real nursery and I just love it. I catch myself going in there just to rock on the glider and think about how it will be when Paige is here with us.
2 nights ago DH finally got to feel Paige kick from the outside. I think he was thrilled.... I also received my invitation for my home baby shower put on by my mom. I loved it, the theme is "a star is soon to be born" how cute.
Grow big and strong Paige we love you:)
