A short update

So, I had another doctor's appointment this past Tuesday. Same routine to follow...you know, pee in a cup, let them take some blood, weigh me (uggh) and all that jazz. However, this time we got to hear the baby's heartbeat for the first time. How exciting is that?!! It didn't take the doctor two seconds to find it, which is a good sign. Sounded good and strong too. I told Jared it sounded like a girly heartbeat, but he's still convinced it's a boy.

My next appointment is February 17th....it will be the one everyone has been asking about...we will finally get to find out if it's a boy or girl swimming around in my belly! Woo hoo!!! So, until then, I will be anxiously waiting until that day arrives.

Later taters,

14 weeks and counting....

O.k....so like a million people have asked me to post a preggers pic....I guess they want to see just how big I am! So, here I am, 14 weeks tomorrow....can't believe it's already been that long. I only had morning sickness for about two weeks and that was during the time no one knew. I must be part of the lucky few, I don't see how people make it feeling like that for the entire pregnancy! I haven't felt any "fluttering" yet, but this baby is already sitting on top of my bladder causing the never ending trips to the bathroom all day AND night. But, it's totally worth it. My next doctor's appointment is on January 20th and we will get to hear the heartbeat and see how much the little bean has grown....so exciting. From my calculation, we will likely get to find out the gender at my February appointment and decide if we will go with the girl's name I have fallen in love with or the boy's name that Jared will be calling "his boy". Either way, we are both excited of the progress so far and look forward to updating everyone after this next appointment!

P.S. Do all pregnant woman start showing this early or is it because I waited so long to have a child?
