The Life And Times Of James M. Wisler

I haven’t done an update in a while, so here it is.

Its hard to beleive its been anywhere close to thirty weeks since we found out Mel was pregnant. This has definitely been an adventure, and its not over yet. Melissa is now obviously pregnant. No loose clothing or heavy coat would hide it. She has to adjust the way she walks, sits, and sleeps to accomodate the three pound baby inside. Things will probably get even more uncomfortable from this point on.

Ada has been developing a lot. She could now be sucking her thumb regularly. Her brain should be active and, get this, she could even be experiencing Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep, which would mean she is dreaming. What a 30 week old fetus dreams about, I’m sure I have no idea. Most all of Ada’s organs have developed, she may even be able to cry if it were not for the amniotic fluid that fills her up every time she opens her mouth. Facial features have developed and hair on the head is becoming thicker. Since we are unable to tell the color of the hair during a sonogram, we are betting on either red or blonde.

Only 10 more weeks left. I am definitely getting to a point where I can feel the mixture of anxiousness, excitement, and nervousness.
