Good News Across The Blogosphere

It's been a good (and busy) month in Baby-Making Blogland.

For us, of course, the string of good news started four weeks ago with our whew ultrasound that ruled out any neural tube defects for Peeper.

Then Vee and Jay rolled into July with a string of positive pee-sticks, followed by a positive beta, and are now awaiting their six-week ultrasound. (And writing "anxiety" posts that give me deja vu.)

On the 11th, OneofHisMoms gave birth to (not so) little Trucker/Smiles.

We had another ultrasound last week, and Peeper continues to look great - and three dimensional!

Then, just yesterday, the CutestLittleBabyMakersInTown delivered their son, Theo.

Also yesterday (and today), Calliope of IVP fame has seen a couple of her own positive pee sticks, and is scheduled for a beta on Friday.

Congratulations and best of luck to all you ladies - and welcome to both brand new little men!

Here in our corner of the world, Peeper continues to bake, and has certainly become an active little girl, lately.

We're a couple of weeks past the official midpoint of my pregnancy, and we've also now also passed the midway marks if we start counting from her conception, from when she was tranferred to me, or from when we found out that I'm pregnant.

(Assuming, of course, that she's born anywhere near her due date, which remains to be seen.)

It's hard to believe that I'm half way through. It doesn't even seem like I'm used to the idea of being pregnant yet, and now I have to start getting used to the idea of having a baby.

And then having a baby.

Our plans for her birth and beyond are coming together, bit by bit and it does, indeed, seem that it might "all work out" after all.

That's what we've been banking on this whole time.

No appointments for a while, then I see Midwife K on August 5 and we have the next ultrasound - and the echocardiogram - on August 13.

Until then, I'll just have to trust the gymnastics in my uterus as evidence that all is well.
