How Pregnant Does Cori Look?


So we found out reccently that our baby is in the 75th percentile. Meaning he or she is bigger that 75 % of most babies. That may explain why I am so big and why people keep asking me how many babies I am going to have. We are just happy that our baby is healthy. And it seems our little one is just taking after his/her parents. Sterling was a 9 lb baby and although I was premature I weighted over 9 lbs by my due date.
The picture is from my birthday on March 3, but it seems I have gotten so much bigger just in the fews weeks since then. We are very excited for our little baby Goliath. :) Only 54 more days!

6 Month Baby Update




This is a post I should have put up in Febuary but forgot to...

Well it's time for another baby update! I'm now 6 months pregnant and into the third trimester. Sterling and I are both getting really excited for the big day in May. The baby has been very active lately kicking, turning and basically beating me up :) . Last month Sterling even got to feel the baby move for the first time. But now the baby is so strong that my whole stomach shakes when our little one gets active.

Yesterday Sterling and I went to our 27 week ultrasound appointment with Dr. DeVore our high-risk OB. The best news of all was that everything is fine and our baby is healthy! We still don't know the baby's gender, which almost slipped out from our doctor when he forgot that we want it to be a surprise. The baby is now 2 1/2 pounds! This was probably our most entertaining ultrasound yet! The first funny thing was that the baby had his/her hand in their mouth. Apparently our baby was bored and their hand looked pretty tasty. It was really cute! Then when he was trying to get a good picture of the baby's face for us the baby kept sticking his/her tongue out. Very funny! I think our little one is a comedian. Sterling and I were both amazed out how clearly the ultrasound shows the baby's face. Technology sure has come a long way!

The first photo I attached is the one of the baby's face. The next is of the baby trying to eat his/her hand. And lastly is a profile.
