Today I am 23 weeks 3 days pregnant and I got out of bed this morning and showered and came to work.
That seems so mundane, but it is a HUGE milestone for me. Because at this point in my pregnancy with Logan I was in the hospital on strict bed rest.
Tomorrow is the anniversary of the day I was admitted to the hospital.
Sometimes I feel like this pregnancy is taking forever. Other times I feel like I just woke up from a bad dream, two years later and still just shy of 6 months pregnant.
It is hard for me to believe that on Logan's birthday, just two weeks from now, I will be further along in my pregnancy than I have ever been before. 25 weeks will be a big milestone.
As will 26... 27... 28... you get the idea.
In a little way, I feel like I'm back in that hospital room, marking the days off in my little calendar because the NICU nurse told us that every single day is a victory. In fact, today I'm going out to get a calendar, like the one my mom brought to my hospital room two years ago. And I think I'm going to "mark off" the days just like she did, with a "G" for Good Day. Because every single day that I stay pregnant is a good day, just like it was two years ago.
Praying for you Anna!

Yay! Each and every day is a gift! I'm glad things are going well and the three of you as well as the "bun in the oven" are in my prayers. Have a wonderful rest of the week!
