17 weeks and its a....


17 Weeks

Well i am starting to show.. Thank God, i was beginning to believe all that increased appetite and sickness i felt in the beginning was all pretend.

Greg and I had been dying to find out boy or girl. I tried convincing him to let me take one of those gender tests you get at Rite Aid but no luck. So we met with my OB last week and i bribed her to do an ultrasound and look for the sex.
The images were not the best but she was 95% sure it's a................BOY!!
We have another ultrasound next week that is a bit more high-tech so we will know for sure but i have myself convinced it's a boy, so much so that i even went and registered.
THANK GOD for Laura who went with me to make sense of the whole thing. It turned what would have been a 5 hour process into a very enjoyable 2 hour process. I just pointed and shot while she told me which bath, breast pump and swalders were the best for reasons x-y-z, which i'm still not sure i understand yet.

Greg and i are looking at some furniture this week and might paint the nursery.
We are going with Jungle theme and i'm super excited!
We will have more photos next week after the ultrasound. Stay tuned...

12 Weeks.. and then some

12 Weeks Preggers

12 Weeks

Well i am actually at 15 weeks but am a bit behind on the blogging.
I am felling much better and even started my pilates classes back up. My belly is starting to grow and we are starting to get very excited... especially to find out if it's a boy or girl.

My next appointment is at the end of the month and we will find out ...boy or girl.

Here are a few picts from our 12 week appt.

We went for an ultrasound and got to see some cool picts of the little one. It was really cool, they put the images up on a 40" flat screen... a lot different than i envisioned.

At 15 weeks the baby is the size of an apple.

And lastly a few cravings so far... Fruit- especially plums and pears, water with lemon and olives and pickles.

So as for now i am just waiting for a few more weeks to find out the sex...YEA!
Stay tuned.....
