So, it’s safe to say that I am now enormous compared to week 22. Many things are different and changing everyday with the little one. Every morning before Marshall leaves he puts his hand on my tummy and says good morning to him and Remmy gives him two kicks to say hi back. It’s the [...]

Baby Development at 24 Weeks
Posted in Second Trimester on January 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Your baby isn’t just sitting around (on your bladder) doing nothing, he’s working hard preparing for life outside the womb—perfecting his lungs and packing on the pounds. He’ll gain ½ pound this week alone. Other highlights this week:
Things are starting to get a little crowded inside the old womb as baby grows bigger and bigger. [...]
Houston, We Have a Kick!

I am SO excited! After countless weeks of jealously watching my wife experience Remmy’s various tickles, pokes, and flutters, my day had finally arrived!
I got up early (well, 8:15) this morning to get ready for school at nine. After taking my shower and getting my things together, I stopped back in the bedroom to say [...]
Development at 23 Weeks

Your baby’s got a while to go before his lungs will be ready for air and is practicing his “breathing” on the amniotic fluid—sucking it in and out of his lungs. Fat production is in overdrive at this point (for the baby, not you! Well, OK, maybe for the baby and you). Your baby will [...]
Commonalities

I do realize I’m tempting the powers that be when I say this, but I’ll say it anyway. I’ve come to the stark realization that it’s been over a month since we had our last visit to the hospital! I know, I can’t believe it either. Hopefully things will stay that way, until due time [...]
22 Week Belly Shot

So it’s a little crazy thinking that we have more weeks behind us than ahead of us. I’ve found, though, that’s definitely shaping up to be a good thing; Jess is definitely starting to feel a little bit antsy. She said to me today, “I wish I could just have the baby, but not have [...]
Week 22 Diagnostic Ultrasound
Posted in Second Trimester, Ultrasounds on January 9, 2009 | 1 Comment »
So we recently had our diagnostic ultrasound (the only one we’ve scheduled so far!), which the doctors look at to make sure everything is developing as expected. The appointment went well (aside from a little nausea), and the ultrasound tech said everything looked good from what she could see. She said Remmy was 15 ounces [...]

Over Christmas Jess and I visited my family in South Carolina. Here’s some pictures of our experience (because you don’t just visit the Klickmans, you experience them!).
Remmy’s Development at 21 Weeks

Hello All,
I can’t believe how big Remmy is now. Marshall pointed out today that the baby is as big as his 11″ foot. I thought, the baby is that big? Well at least I don’t feel that big… : ) In other news, we just got back from our South Carolina trip with Marshall’s family [...]
Our Son Remmy at 19 Weeks

In keeping with the spirit of the new year, I thought it would be fitting to display a little showcase of what’s to come in (can you believe it?) about 5 months! Over the Christmas break, Jess and I went to a place called “Moms-To-Be”, which specializes in presentational ultrasounds and maternity spa treatments. Before [...]
