Starting to Pop! :)

Only 12 days after my last blog update and I think I grew over night! ha! I have been very "itchy" and that, I hear means my skin is stretching and little one is growing! :) Oh this has been the best experience in my life. I love being pregnant! I feel great, (not to be modest but people have told me I look great) and I am truly blessed! It's just been an incredible 4 1/2 months! I have felt something more than fluttering, I'm just waiting for the big KICK and seeing toes or fingers protruding across my tummy! That will be freaky :)

I go back to the Dr's on Tues. September 25th for measurements and I guess an ultrasound. I know I have other tests coming up for things like diabetes etc. I'm not worried because this is truly a gift from God and I know everything will be alright.

That's about it for now - feel free to leave comments :) I'll be printing these out to put in a memory book for little one to read someday! Thanks!

Feeling Great!

Well, today is 18 weeks of pregnancy and everything is going great! Went to my Dr's on Thursday and he said that everything looks to be developing wonderfully and he said "You have one BIG baby in there!" :) I got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat :) He printed out pictures for me again and I got to see such cool pictures of the baby's spine and rib cage, the baby's brain development, how big this baby's legs are! :) Seems very healthy and I am very blessed. The fun part is at the end when my Dr. says "Oh I see what you're having". I was like, WHAT? What am I having? And my sister shouts, "NO WE DON'T WANT TO KNOW"! So I was like, Oh :( My Dr. knows what I'm having but I don't!!! ha! That's what surprises are all about!

Got to enjoy a wonderful week down the shore! You can see by my belly how good I ate while on vacation! ha! :) I have finally gained some weight at 4 months which is good, mainly baby!

I go back for my 20 week appt. at the end of September.
