24 weeks update on Luke

Luke is literally rocking and rolling inside and having a great time in my tummy. On Monday, we went to the pediatric cardiologist, Dr Joshi, to check to see if there was a chance Luke would have an ASD. This was basically a precautionary visit due to the increased risk of him having one because Will had an ASD. We got good news from Dr Joshi. All the blood vessels, valves and everything else in the heart were perfect. He couldn't get a good look at what could be an ASD because Luke's shoulder was in the way. He just told us to get an ECHO done when he is born and ask them to check and then follow up with the pediatrician at his check up to see if an ASD is evident. So until then we shall just pray and wait for that time.

Just chilling

Today we had our check up with our doctor and he was pleased with everything. Luke looked great and was literally kicking me and flipping and showing out on the ultrasound. His feet are kicking me in the stomach and it feels like a knot is there but I don't care. I just have to adjust the way I sit and he moves. We didn't get measurements today but my belly is growing and measuring around 24 weeks so here we go to the critical part of the pregnancy where we all get scared and nervous because I delivered early at 24 weeks and 5 days. So from now on we are going to be on pins and needles. The Lord has his hand in this pregnancy and we are looking to him for guidance and strength to make it to 40 weeks. We have been given signs to look for as far as preterm delivery contractions and such. So please be in prayer for us as we go forth and prepare for the arrival of Baby Luke.
