Baby Parsons Continues to Grow (Weeks 23 to 27)

Baby Parsons continues to grow healthy and strong. We had the our 26th week appointment not too long ago and all is well with Baby Parsons. He has a strong heartbeat, as well as, strong arms and legs! He continues to kick me...just much harder these days! Jay and I enjoy getting to feel him move around!

For two nights in a row I had charlie horses in my legs. They were certainly a surprise wake up in the middle of the night since I hadn't had them since I was a teenager. I asked the doctor about them and she said they were normal since my body is "growing"!

I also had my glucose test done at this appointment. The sugary drink was not too bad. Just tasted like a flat orange soda. The blood results indicated that my glucose test was normal...which means I can continue enjoying chocolate!

Here are a few pictures over the last few weeks as Baby Parsons continues to grow:
