IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a new mommy to be and I couldnt be more excited! I suffered a miscarriage in November at 7 weeks, but god blessed me and my bf again with my little pumpkin that is expected to arrive October 22nd. I have a dr's appt June 2nd which will be the U/S that determines the sex...I am crossing my fingers for a little boy, but I can't be too picky!! Time seems to be flying by, I can hardly wait to hold my beautiful baby in my arms!

Went to the Dr. to listen to the heartbeat, everything went well thank god! Doc ruled out any down syndrome possibilities from blood work I had done a month prior..I was so happy to hear that! So far everything is going good, have gained 3 lbs in these four months, and it feels like ive gained alot more than that let me tell ya! Maybe towards the end is when it will strike me lol. U/S for boy/girl will be done June 2...crossing my fingers for a lil boy, but whatever god wants to bless me and my huney with will be fine with me = ) Hope everyone is doing great..enjoy the big bellies to come!

JUNE 2, 2008

So I went to the BIG u/s only to be dissapointed lol..baby was moving alot but did not want to uncross those legs! I went again that afternoon to my mom's clinic and same thing happened. Decided to go Thursday because I really wanted to know, and well guess what?? Yes, baby still had legs crossed!! I was so mad I started to cry ..haha..its giving me a hard time already, WOW!

JUNE 12, 2008

Went to my regular dr. appt check up and the doc said everything is going really good. She told me they will try another ultrasound when I am 7 months..I personally dont think I can wait that long to find out what im having!! I want to start buying things now..so I will try to sneak into my mom's clinic sometime next week to try and find out..I pray the lord to atleast let me know that the sex is lol. Baby weighed in at 11 oz at 20 weeks, so everything is fine n dandy! Time is flying by sooo fast I can hardly believe it! My feet are starting to kill me and they seem to get a little swollen at the end of the day, I dont want to find out what they will look like towards the end..ELEPHANT FEET! lol ..

JULY 10, 2008

Had a drs appt. Everything went really well..gained 5 lbs lol but its ok I keep thinking its all water retention because my feet were really swollen when I went to the dr and the nurse saw it lol. Have gained 15 lbs total!! Baby's HB was strong at 160 I have to go back in three weeks to get glucose test done, we will see how that goes, other than that everything was perfect!!

Madame Zaritska's reading

Madame Zaritska, our resident clairvoyant, wants to help you prepare for the arrival of your child. Here she does her best to predict certain aspects of your labor and birth experience.

What she senses for you
The day you deliver, outside will be windy. Your baby will arrive in the morning.

After a labor lasting approximately 19 hours, your child, a girl, will be born. Your baby will weigh about 7 pounds, 13 ounces, and will be 20-1/2 inches long. This child will have blue eyes and some very fine hair.

But there is more. I sense that you are in need of distraction. Some enjoyment. Have you thought about belly painting? Take a look.

Here are names I have picked out:

For boy it will be MICHAEL RENE LEBLANC

For girl it will be SOPHIA MARIE LEBLANC
