21 Weeks!

A banana...weighing in around 12.7 ounces and 10.5 inches in length.
Just 1 week until our ultrasound and we get to discover if Baby T is a girl or boy!!!

Nothing really new to report this week.  Intermittently nauseous still.  No problems sleeping yet.  We did order a Snoogle though, so excited to get this giant pillow in the mail!  The BEST thing ever :-)




And I have 'popped' in a big way.  This is post meal.

20 Weeks!

Week of the Cantaloupe...which means we are approximately 6.5 inches in length, weighing in around 10.6 ounces!

Monthly prenatal exam was quick, all is well.  We have a heart rate of 155.

So the physician I saw this week in practice didn't agree with our due date being moved up 6 days, so we have an estimated due week, not day.  April 9th - April 15th!

No pic. this week, just too busy between my horrendous work schedule, end of semester school work, and the Thanksgiving holiday.  We have a lot to be thankful for this year :-)

19 Weeks!

We have a Mango!  Baby is now around 6 inches in length and weighing in around 8.5 ounces.  Which means, just a week before we are at the HALFWAY point, whew!  It's amazing to think of this awesome developing little person we have...our little one can now hear, smile/frown, hiccup and even has fingerprints and LOVES to move around in there!

I feel like "me" again!   Morning sickness virtually gone so I can now indulge in my daily cup of coffee!  I only get sick now when I eat too much.  I definitely can't eat like I used to, meals are much smaller.  The dreaded heartburn has kicked in in full gear. Tums are my new best friend.   My craving continues to be spicy Mexican food and pizza.  Weight gain: 2lb.

3 weeks to go until we know if there is a girl or boy in there :-)  It's VERY weird to think of that little one being our daughter or son!  

We've slowly been working on registries, which has been overwhelming since I have absolutely no idea on everything we'll need.  Amazon.com seemed to work the best for us since we can add items from any store to it!  Here is a link...am I missing anything?  Amazon.com Registry  and buybuy Baby Registry

I am sooo grateful for my best friend and sister who have graciously started planning a baby shower for Baby T!  We're planning for February or March in Culpeper, VA.  Plan accordingly, would LOVE to see ya'll there :-)

18 Weeks!

Baby is now the size of a Sweet Potato!  Which means our baby is approximately 5.59 inches in length, weighing approximately 6.7 ounces.  We have movement, or at least what I think is movement from the little jumping bean!

I am feeling better, much more rested and not nearly as sick.  Weight gain at just over 1lb.  Yes, full on maternity clothes are most comfortable now.

Next routine doctors appointment on November 22nd AND our anatomy scan/2nd ultrasound is scheduled for December 5th.  So, we can get down to serious shopping business when we find out if Baby T is a he or a she!!!
