Viability! We've reached the point of viability! With modern medical technology, Baby Bless would have a chance to survive if it were born now! Which I'm sure is due in part to the fact he now weighs around 1.2 lbs, and measures about 8.4 inches from crown to rump, but of course this does vary.
Fun times, the center of his bones are beginning to harden! Additionally, he can occupy himself by making a fist, and may already have a preference for his right or left hand {both grandpa's are lefties!}.
Supposedly Baby Bless sleeps and wakes in a more regular pattern now, and I am to notice that he is particularly active when you are resting. Which actually, yes, does seem to be true. Speaking of which . . . Tony felt his kick for the first time Thursday night and we could actually see my stomach move today!
As for my changes . . . I'm finally wearing a bra that fits again! Since my sports bras were getting too tight for comfort and my regular bras with these breastess' were not a pretty sight, I broke down and got 2 new ones. And it's bliss. Kind of funny though, I bought them at the aerie Christmas sale and was asked what size I was looking for, I just told the girl I had no freaking clue! Lol.
The sleeplessness continues, there should be no doubt that there is sleepiness and fatigue, just no sleep. I'm finally reaching my breaking point with clothes, I'm down to 2 pairs of jeans and 1 1/2 pairs of work pants. They're all a gamble though on whether or not they'll fit from day to day.
I'm pretty sure Tony has his mind made up regarding Baby Bless' name, yet he insists that he is keeping an open mind lol.
I visited with two girl friends yesterday and apparently one thought it would be sweet to tell me that I don't even look pregnant, just that I look to have a tire around my waist.
Recap:
Baby bless is 8.4 inches and 1.2 lbs
He may be deciding on righty/lefty as we speak
Tony got to feel baby bless kick for the first time!
I'm wearing bras that fit!
My closet is full of clothes that are no longer an option.
Tony's probably made up his mind on our baby's name.
I have more in common with Firestone than maternity clothes apparently.

LOL at the tire comment. Completely ridiculous, if you ask me....you definitely look like an adorable pregnant lady!
Love it, Leah.
Wow, you look a lot more pregnant when you aren't wearing 2 pairs of spanx!!! :) :)
You might be losing sleep, but you haven't lost your sense of humor! Lol about Firestone!
you sound so much happier now! :)
That is so cool Tony got to feel baby bless kick. I bet he was a proud papa!
That sucks about lack of sleep but yay for bras that finally fit the girls!
I am glad things are starting to look up for you guys :)
Yay for the baby bless update - you look great!
You look adorable. And nothing like a Firestone tire. That crazy.
The sleeping is the worst part. My dr gave me something to help the last 4 weeks. So I could get some sleep before he got here. It was wonderful. I hope it gets better for ya.
You look very happy.
Look at you! Your pics are too cute!
You're all, like, modelesque and stuff! I see your line, and I love it. You don't look like you have a tire around your waist; that wasn't a very nice comment. So cool that Tony felt him, and you saw him. It's weird, isn't it?
Cute outfit! And I'm glade you have a bra that fits now. I think a good bra can make almost anyone feel good :)
There is definitely a little baby in there!!!! YAYAY!!!
You look just wonderful Leah! Totally adorable. I wouldn't say you have a TIRE around your waist (dear Lord, HOW is that better) but you definitely look like you're doing great with weight gain :)
Mama, your beautiful!!!
You look so adorable!! Cute preggo belly
Oh my gosh, you are really looking pregnant! And I can't believe you have such a pronounced linea negra already. Crazy!
lol at the tire comment! Funny what some people think sounds "nicer." Actually it sounds like something Mike would say...
You look great!!
You look great!!
Loved all the pictures this time around! You look so cute in that white/navy combo! Do you find yourself dressing in more blues/greens and less pinks since you are expecting a boy? Just wondering. My friends say it's just a mental thing when you are pregnant. You just end up doing it even though you aren't doing it on purpose.
Love the updates! Keep them coming!
Precious!! Seriously, you are so cute!
you look beautiful!
You look adorable!! You're so great at updating about all of this and I love to read! :)
I love your baby bump. It doesn't even slightly look like a tire.
You look fantastic, and I agree - looks nothing like a tire.
Yay for baby movement!! I can't wait to feel those! BTW, You are seriously the cutest!

You look fabulous, Leah!
You look beautiful! Hope this finds you well and i look forward to reading more of your blog:-)
