23 weeks!!! Looking more and more pregnant!!

22 weeks & 3 days (Thanksgiving day)
I am 23 weeks today, I love finally being able to celebrate Monday as a good day LOL!! These pictures were taken on Thanksgiving. (22 weeks, 3 days.) I look the same so I just included these instead of taking new ones. I also had a Dr. apt last week, on Tuesday, baby's heartbeat sounded really good. Blood pressure was perfect which is good, being overweight puts me at a higher risk of developing high blood pressure. I received the go ahead for my Washington trip which I'm so excited for. My next apt will be when I get back from my Washington trip in January. At that appointment I will get my blood sugar checked and also receive my 1st Rh immune-globulin shot. "Rh immune-globulin acts like a vaccine, preventing the mother's body from producing any potentially dangerous Rh antibodies that can cause serious complications in the newborn or complicate any future pregnancies." Since I am Rh negative and Ken is Rh positive this is important in case our baby boy is Rh positive.
I also received my baby shower invitation in the mail this week. I'm so blessed to have someone to take the time to throw me a baby shower. It's a big mile stone when you're pregnant and I'm so excited to be able have one, which I didn't think I would since living in Virginia makes it hard. But since I will be in Washington in December for 3 weeks my wonderful Mom-A ( one of my adopt-a-moms) will be throwing the shower for me. I'm excited to be doing a mommy and daddy shower. Ken is a huge part of my life and with out him I wouldn't be having this little miracle so it's very important to me for him to be included in the shower as well. Also since my dad has been a huge figure in my life I wanted to make it man friendly so he would feel comfortable attending as well.

That invitation is so adorable. She did a fantastic job! I had to display it, it's on my fridge!
