12 weeks 3 days!

I decided to finally start a log...here goes!

Dec 20th, 2007- I am back to feeling great, full appetite, not so tired, much more energy! I have popped within the last 2 weeks, I can still fit in most of my pre-pregnancy clothes but I am much more comfortable if I wear maternity clothes! I'm getting anxious to find out the sex, my uncle is a radiologist so we'll be trying when I am 16 weeks to find out, and if its stubborn then well go back 2 weeks later and try again! I have no patience!

Jan 9th, 2008- Happy New Year everyone! Well to my disappointment my uncle was unable to do an ultrasound at 16 weeks, he didnt want to risk getting any of his technicians in trouble for doing it so I have to be patient and wait till my scheduled U/S on Jan 30th, only 3 weeks from today! I had my 17 week checkup last night, everythng went well......but I was a bit upset about how much weight I have gained already! 11 lbs! Im blaming it on the holiday! My blood pressure was low, like usual, 110/60, but the Dr never seems concerned about it. The babies h/r was 160 and if we believe those old wives tales I think its looking like a girl! I teased my husband and he wasnt too happy, dont get me wrong we love our girls but 3 girls! What happens when they are ALL teenagers! Ahhhh!

Feb 1st, 2008-So wednesday we found out we are having a boy! We are beyond excited! He would not stop moving for the tech, he was doing backflips the whole time! She was able to see everything she needed to and she said everything looked perfect! He weighs 9 oz and his heart rate was 157, so that old wives tale is completely wrong! Im a little disappointed that we didnt get any good pictures, he was playing shy the whole time! Maybe I'll have to look into doing a 3D/4D ultrasound!
