Baby Fact #2 and Update

Did you know? Sleeping on your back during the second and third trimester can decrease blood flow through the lower half of the body and back to the heart? With the increase weight of pregnancy and the baby, doctors recommend sleeping on the left side to prevent compression of the vena cava.

Week 18 is upon us, and the Foleys are enjoying a snow day on this Friday! We have about 9 inches on the ground, so we'll be bundled up in the house today.

Exciting news may be just around the corner. We are scheduled for an ultrasound on Lincoln’s birthday. If Baby Foley cooperates, we’ll learn if it’s a boy or girl. And Kristen’s mom-to-be books and websites tell us that she may begin to feel little flutters in the next few weeks. Boy, (or girl), this is fun stuff!
