Preston Matthew Koontz

We have decided to name our son Preston Matthew Koontz. We chose the name Preston because we like it a lot and it is not very common. Matthew was chosen because many names on the Swann side of the family start with M and so does Matthew. Also, my mom particularly liked the name Matthew, so that helped us make the decision.

So far I am feeling really good. I have had some pretty bad heart burn and indigestion, but nothing that is unusual with pregnancy. I was VERY tired in the first trimester, but now that I am in the second trimester, I have much more energy. I have already gained quite a bit of weight compared to when I was pregnant with Evan, but Dr. Evans says it is the right amount to be gaining. (I didn't gain very much weight with Evan due to breast cancer.)

I had an ultrasound last week at 23 weeks gestation. Preston looks great! I am so happy that he is healthy! Right now his size is average, but somewhat small. I am interested to see how big he will be when he is born! (Evan always measured as larger than average, so it seems sort of strange to me that Preston is not large too!)

Here is a 3D picture of Preston. I think he looks quite a bit like Evan, but we will have to wait and see what he looks like when he is born in a few more months.


Here is a picture of me that was taken at 20 weeks gestation. (I look a bit bigger now, but not too much.)
