Baby Shower
We had Spot’s baby shower over the weekend. There was good food, and lots of lovely people. Spot made out like a bandit. I think she is going to be a very spoiled child. I honestly didn’t realize that one tiny person could need so much stuff. I mean, honestly, that is a LOT of…

We’re at 33 weeks! That means that we only have 3 more weeks to full-term! It’s been a bit of a busy week for Spot. We had Baptism class last Thursday night, a non-stress test at our regular OB on Friday, and Tuesday morning we had another anatomy scan. And since we hadn’t had one…

I’m 30 weeks along now and have managed to keep myself from being hospitalized for a whole week since my release. Yea! I am still having pain on my right side, and my liver enzyme levels are still off, but the doctors can’t seem to find a cause. At this point, they believe it to…

Spot is 27 weeks along now and, based on her latest scans, doing well. She moved around so much that I wasn’t sure they would be able to get everything they needed, but they were able to tell that Spot has gained 6oz in the last 2 weeks, making her a total of 1lb and…

First, the important stuff — I have super good news to report about all the bloodwork I had to have done last week. It came back negative for the infectious diseases and genetic abnormalities they were testing for! Right now that means we get to move on with the thought that Spot is just a…

This week was our first visit to Perinatology (or the high-risk obstetrician). It was a long appointment – almost 4 whole hours, most of which was spent on doing ultrasound scans of Spot. Her anatomy all still looks good, but unfortunately, you can’t use an ultrasound to determine if she is small just because…

We’re at 22 weeks and I’m finally starting to actually look like a pregnant person. Of course, along with looking pregnant, my lower abdomen is sore as things start to stretch. That has been a bit annoying, but considering the problems I hear about other people having, I really shouldn’t complain. What I can’t live…

At 21 weeks, I’m more than halfway through my pregnancy. Last week was out anatomy scan. In case you missed our official announcement on the local radio, Spot Turner is officially Girl Spot. When you have connections, you get a live gender reveal on the radio. A video posted by Andrea Dillon Turner (@mouseinmypocket7) on…
Read MoreMy Stapler
Funny story: at 20 weeks baby Turner is the size of a Swingline stapler. If you’ve seen the 1999 movie Office Space, then you know the one I’m talking about. If not, reference photos below. And, yes, I am a huge nerd. I have my very own red Swingline stapler at the office. And, I…
