17 Weeks & 2 Days

Today we had our appointment. I am 17 weeks and 2 days right now. Everything is going great!!! I got some antibiotics to try to take care of some sinus problems I have been having.

The heart rate was really good in the 150's. The baby was moving around so it took the woman a few minutes to catch up to him/her! That was exciting for me because the baby has not had much movement ever. The doc told me I should start feeling the baby by the next appointment.

Speaking of next appt......MARCH 13th is the BIG day!!! We find out if it is a boy or girl!!!!!!!! I can not wait! 3 weeks from today!!!!!!!!!! I will definitely keep posting!

Kristin's having a BOY!

My bext friend Kristin found out on Thursday that she is having a BOY! Now it is only a matter of time before we find out what I am having!!!

4 Months

4 MONTHS DOWN - - 6 MORE TO GO! I am 16 weeks and starting to feel a little better. I have had some really bad upper back problems the last week or two. Once I can get over this, I think I will be doing GREAT! Our next appointment is Feb. 20th. I will be 17 weeks and 2 days when we go so I won't be finding out the sex until the next appointment. I am so anxious to find out the sex. I was told that there are tests they take between 19-20 weeks and that's when they check for the sex so I am hoping that I will have to go back 2-3 weeks later rather than wait 4 more weeks. We will see!!!! I am so ready to finish picking things out for the little bundle of joy. I am really starting to have the "pregnant" feeling. I can't feel the baby moving yet or anything, but I can tell that there is something in there. It's a very weird feeling.You don't want to move weird or sneeze or cough because you are afraid of hurting it or myself. Everytime I sneeze I feel like I pull a muscle.It's crazy and I have been told that it just gets worse so I am trying to prepare myself to be scared to move. I am a paranoid person as it is and now I have to care for myself and something inside of me and it's an awesome, but scary feeling. Well I will update after the doctor appointment next week! Maybe luck will present itself and the doctor will want to do an ultrasound. We haven't seen the baby since Dec. 27th. It's really weird to know something is growing and to hear its heartbeat, but not be able to see it!!!!
