17 week Ultrasound!




I finally got to see the doctor on Jan. 3 and everything looks good.She did a bedside ultrasound to look at the wee one..we were hoping to see the sex but to no avail. I think I drank too much coffee because the baby was moving all over the place! Everytime the doctor thought she had a good shot the baby would move. The ultrasound machine was an old one so the picture was not that great which didn't help matters. She said if she had to "guess" it is a girl..only becasue she didn't see any boy parts..but that doesn't mean they are not there, she just didn't see them!

I think it's finally sunk in that I am going to have another baby. For the past 4 months not having any prenatal care, it allowed me to stay in denial! LOL I can't deny it any longer that's for sure!
I'm feeling good, no more nausea and can now at last eat! I do still have problems with food aversions but can live with that! My belly has popped and is out as far as the boobs are. Emilee keeps telling me that i'm fat! LOL Surprisingly, I have gained 1 lb since Dec. 13 when I went to the WIC office.
Next appointment is Jan. 17th for the anatomy scan..so excited! Can't wait to see if it's really a girl or we will finally be having our boy!
My next Dr. appointment is jan. 30th.
