Baby Tickers

So, I found these and though they were neat.

Fifth Dr Appointment

Today was my fifth visit to the Dr. and everything is going well. There was not too much to the appointment, urine sample, check my weight, and listen to the baby's heartbeat via doppler. This was my last visit at my current hospital (UABW) because my Dr is moving to a different hospital. My next appointment will be at the hospital that he is moving to (BWMC). They just redecorated/renovated the labor and delivery part at the hospital that he is moving to. Kenny and I went and toured it yesterday during their open house. It is really nice and the baby can stay in the room with me as much or as little as I want.

Half Way!! YEAH!

Today I am exactly 20 weeks pregnant! Who hoo! Our baby will be here in 20 more weeks! I cannot believe how fast the first 20 weeks has gone. It seems like I just found I was pregnant.

Fourth Dr's Appointment

Today was my fourth Dr's appointment. Nothing much happened today. Marisa and Camden went with me - Cam was excited to get to see his cousin on the tv (sonogram) it was really cute. Dr. Wideman thinks that the baby might be a boy - he said that I could start buying stuff, but not to take the tags off anything just yet. He made me an appointment for Saturday October 6th to have a level 2 ultrasound when we should find out for sure if the baby is a boy or a girl. Marisa is convinced that the baby is a boy. She really wants Camden to have a male cousin to play ball with and stuff. I just want a health baby.
Also, Risa sees the same Dr, and while we were there she asked him about her Clomid and he told her to come in in a couple of weeks and get tested again (progesterone levels)so hopefully she will be expecting soon!

not very good at this

So it appears that I am not very good at this whole blogging thing. As you can see I do not post regularly, but I am going to try to do better.

Tomorrow I am going to be 14 weeks along. I have had a little mild nausea and some fatigue but nothing major, and deffinately nothing compared to what my sister went thru. She was sick from daylight to dark and it never let up until her son was born. So, I feel really lucky in that regard.

I am really curious to know if this little one is a boy or a girl. I won't find out for another 4 weeks (if the baby participates at that time). Not that it really matters, I am just anxious to know. I can already feel her or him in there moving around, and I get hung up all the time on what to call the baby.

third Dr's appointment

Today was my third Dr's appointment. I am 13w 4d now.
I waited what seemed like forever to see the Dr. He was about an hour late for my appointment. I did not get an ultrasound today, But I did ger to hear the baby's heartbeat with an instrument called a Doppler

second Dr 's appointment

Today was my second Dr's Appointment. I am 9 weeks and 4 days along. The baby's heart rate is 180 bpm, and the Dr says that is should go down by the next appointment. It was amazing to be able to hear the baby's heartbeat! The baby appears to be healthy! The baby measures to be 9 weeks and 1 day old. Because of that the Dr has decided to keep Feb 22, 2007 as our due date :) Which is a Thursday.
So far, I haven't been sick at all. I have been really REALLY tired though. Sometimes I feel weird, not like myself - foggy, kind of like I have been taking cold medicine or something (I haven't). Almost every day this past week I have gotten up and gone to work (from 6:30am - 2:30pm only 8 hours) come home taken a nap until 7 or 8 gotten up long enough to eat then gone back to bed until time to get up and get ready for work the next morning. It is ridiculous - I cannot get anything done.
I have already started trying to get a room ready for the baby. Since I moved in, I really have only used the room for storage, so the baby's room needs to be cleaned out. Once we find out whether we are having a girl or boy I guess I will decide how to paint the room, and I want it to be cleaned out by time to paint, which should be at about 16-20 weeks or so or in 7-11 weeks.
This appointment was very brief and only lasted about 15 minutes or so including an ultrasound.
