22 Weeks

Nothing new to report...except that maybe the braxton hicks have started this week. Not fun, I forgot how uncomfortable they are! Anyways, thats all for now. Here's my 22 week pic, please excuse my cluttered bathroom. :)

21 weeks!

Was my last post really at 18 weeks? Sorry, I thought I'd posted sooner! Well, first of all, we are having another BOY! The ultrasound was really great and actually showed me measuring a week ahead, so due May 26th. I am still counting on June 2nd though, with DS he was 9 days late. If this one came "early" I'd be pleasantly surprised! Everything on the u/s was good, there was a "prominent urethral pelvic junction" that they wanted to follow up on with another ultrasound, but other than that he's great! He's weighing in at 13oz (probably a little more now, that was over a week ago), has a "fat lil tummy" and at the moment, lies breech, but I don't think I'm to worried about that yet. We were very surprised it is a boy, but couldn't be happier.

I didn't bother posting a pic this time, because I really haven't changed since the last one. There are days when I look and feel more pregnant than I really am, and then days I forget I am pregnant haha. The second trimester is definitely the easiest, no issues with nausea anymore, and I'm not terrified that I am going to loose this one anymore. He moves a lot and kicks strong, so I don't worry as much.  UPDATE: Tonight I discovered I am already making a leaking colostrum (first milk)!!! This is a huge deal to me, since I had issues BFing with my son, and this has NEVER happened, even after my milk came in!! Sorry, but you're probably used to TMI if you're a frequent reader! lol

Started getting things together for him... ordered my first 10 cloth diapers, made my own crib bumpers, about to make my crib skirt, bought a changing table, washed and destained some baby clothes and put them in a drawer in his room. Painted wooden letters for his room. I've kept pretty busy and I'm excited!! Anyways, that's about all for now... enjoy some pics.

18.5 Weeks

Well I'm 18 1/2 weeks now. I am definitely starting to look pregnant! I woke up to the surprise of this bump! It made it a little difficult getting outta bed this morning. I am still getting the leg cramps, and my back has started killing me, but overall I am feeling good and everything is moving right along! I am still feeling baby move, but this weekend I've been pretty busy and haven't noticed much. The heartbeat has gone down a little bit and is hovering around 140-150. I have my gender ultrasound in a week from Tuesday. I am excited and nervous at the same time. Still not needing maternity pants, but the shirts are definitely more comfortable. My scrubs at work are starting to feel a little snug... it's a good thing they provide 3 bigger sizes for me if I need! Anyways, thats about all for now.
