Hi! Today I'm 19 weeks and this is my first pregnancy. I've been enjoying this site for some time, but finally decided to sign up and get a VIP page. I'm feeling great - still pretty tired in the afternoon (was VERY tired 24-7 the entire first trimester). But at least now I can stay up past 8:30-9 pm! I shouldn't complain, I had virtually no morning sickness this entire pregnancy. Besides being exhausted, my only real symptoms were strong food aversions and sensitivity to odors. And lots of weight gain... everywhere! Oh well. My hubby and I both felt the little bun inside me at exactly 17 1/2 weeks. I had been feeling "things" for about a week before that, but was never quite sure. This time, we both felt it at the exact same time, in the middle of the night when we both couldn't sleep. I haven't really felt anything for sure since then, and it's quite worrisome. I'm relieved by the fact that we're getting an ultrasound in 2 days, which should relieve my anxieties. Plus, we find out the sex!! Yay! SO exciting. Anyway, hi to all the preggies out there and congratulations!

Ultrasound appointment: February 11, 2008 (19 weeks)

yay! I thought it was a boy for sure, but daddy was right. It's a GIRL :-) We're so excited!! We stopped by Isabella's school to tell her. She couldn't be happier! Thanks for all the well-wishes and sweet messages I've gotten from all the other mommas out there. So sweet! Congratulations to you too!
