Just got back from my 20 week appointment. Everything went well. AFP results were perfect so thats good. The ultrasound report hasn't made it to my doctor yet...but they will call if anything is out of the ordinary. Here's a new bump pic from today. I just felt way bigger today (probably bloated), so I thought I would take a new pic.
GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!
We found out yesterday at our ultrasound that our little baby is a girl!! We are so excited!! Here is a beautiful profile pic of her...
Everything went great, she's measuring about a week ahead so we're lookin' good!! I have my 20 week appt tomorrow with my doctor. We'll go over details there. :) Now on to names....this is the tough part!
Here is my 20 week belly pic...
Compare to my first pic...at 5 weeks...
I seriously can not wait to see our baby in one more week!! It's been since 8 weeks (2 months ago!!) that we've seen the baby on an ultrasound. It's going to be soooo much bigger when we go next Monday! It'll be moving around and everything!! I will be posting the pictures as soon as I get them scanned it next week sometime. WOOHOOO!! Let's hope everything is measuring good and is there, and that baby shows us what it is!! :) I can't wait to start decorating the nursery! I'll be 19 weeks tomorrow! I'll post a pic later this week! Checked the baby's heartrate last night it was going from 147-155. I can't believe it was at 178 at the first appt at 8 weeks! I love having my doppler.
Ok that's all for now!
I just thought I would share a short clip of the baby's heartbeat. I recorded it with my camera, and using the doppler I rented. It was about 150 bpm. :) Enjoy! I know I do!!!!
I think I felt the baby kick or punch the other night. It's so similar to gas so I'm not 100% sure. hehe! But it keeps happening a few times a day, the same light little kick, so it's gotta be the baby! I'm so excited! Nothing else new to report really. A new pic for MOM haha!
Jay & Cara update: She's currently 9 weeks and 4 days, EDD August 16th.
Chris & Veronica update: She's currently 9 weeks with an EDD of August 20th.
I feel like I'm really getting big now!!! Just in the past day or so I have felt bigger whenever I look in the mirror. I don't know if I'm just bloated or just popping?? Not sure if I have felt any movements yet...some "tickling" inside...but thats about it. Here is my latest pic!
Still feeling good! Less tired than earlier months, but that is the only difference really. Still discussing names, we've come up with a few more choices. I guess we'll wait until we know what it is and narrow down the search. So far for boy we have Warren (but it sounds too much like Roland when I hear Tony say the name so I'm not too sure about it) boy names seem to be a little harder right now. For girl we have Adelaide, Marion, and Dakota that we agree on. I still love Lorelei. We'll see in 3 weeks what the gender is and hopefully that will help us get more serious on the name picking. I would like to call it something by February!!
I have been getting headaches off an on, usually last for a few days at a time, then gone for a while. Right now its non existent...YAY! Let's hope it stays that way! I also notice my nose is stuff and has to be blown at least once or twice a day. Kinda annoying but I guess my body is producing extra mucus these days. FUN! I also can feel my uterus now...it's a few inches below my belly button. It'll continue to move higher and higher!!
I guess that is all for now. Here is my latest pic!
Monday, January 28th at 4:15pm we have our ultrasound appointment! If the baby cooperates for us we should find out what it is!!!!!!!!! I can not wait! WooHooo!!!
