28 weeks marks the first week that I actually feel physically preggo! I even feel like I am starting to waddle. Sleeping has become...interesting. I'm like a pancake.
Left Side, Right Side, Left Side, Right Side.
After much debate and going back and forth on the issue, I decided to get the H1N1 vaccine. Not only was I worried about the lack of testing on pregnant women but I was also concerned about whether to get the shot with the preservative or not. The only place that was offering the shot in the area was WITH the preservative. I had already had my seasonal flu shot at my OB's office and it was not preservative free. They said it contained as little mercury as a can of tuna.
With all the stories about how pregnant women are dying or their babies are dying from H1N1 complications AND with the urging of my OB, my instincts told me to go for it. I don't what the right decision is. Whatever will be will be. I will just trust in God and pray he puts a shield of protection around little Keeton.
In other news, Jason and I attended a Breast Feeding Class last week and it was really great! Very informative and made this experience seem even more real. It definitely reinforced how much we want to be successful at breastfeeding. I do have to say though, it was a little disturbing at first to see an early 90's video montage of a million breasts being forced into baby's mouths. I usually love movie montages but this was a tad to much.
Things are going great right now and I feel more and more blessed each day. I can't wait to hold this little guy in my arms and kiss his sweet little pudgy cheeks.
Here are a few things that Jason and I think he likes and dislikes already
(I know we are just projecting, but it's fun!):
