My mood while writing this blog: Ok

Ok. So I am 19 weeks and 3 days. I go to my scan on the 16th. Can't wait. I want to know if it's a boy or a girl so bad. I haven't bought a SINGLE thing yet. But Wed I will go out and buy some things for sure. I am a little worried about me because you are supposed to be gaining weight now. I am a big girl anyway and my pre-pregnancy weight was 229 lbs, so I wanted to watch how much I gained because I didn't want to hurt myself or my baby by getting too big. So I weighed myself Sunday and I weigh 218 lbs. Total shock to me. I don't know if it's because I have changed my diet and I actually eat fruits and veggies, and no soda. But I will have to see what the doc tells me on the 15th, my regular monthly check up before my scan.

The baby is sure active though and getting a lot stronger cuz I can actually feel the kicks from the outside now. :-) Really exciting. My husband wants to feel it so bad. It never fails either, I tell him to hurry and put his hand on my belly and the baby doesn't move again, until he moves his hand. LOL poor guy.

Just excited to be almost half way, and soon to know what my little one will be. HOPEFULLY if the little peanut will let us see. :-) Hope you are all well and feeling great!
