Baby Update

Sorry for the lack of updates........Here's the latest and greatest!
Had a doctor's appointment last Thursday, which put me at almost 28 weeks. Blood pressure is good, belly is measuring a little ahead which was the same as last time so hopefully we will be meeting baby sooner than later but we will see. Baby's heartbeat was 140 and the doc says everything looks great! Which is nice to hear because I'm kind of new at this! :)
Monday I drank the dreaded "orange drink" for the glocose test to check for gestational diabetes and was happy to hear that "everything looked just fine" with by blood work. Thank goodness because at this point in the game I can't give up iceream! :) I was also informed that I will now be going for appointments every 2 weeks which made me realize this baby will be here before we know it! I honestly can't complain at all because with the exception of a few bad back aches I have been feeling great!
Sure seems like fall has set in the past few days which maybe will motivate us to get going on the nursery. I have managed to put together the changing table and rocking chair myself(with minimal help from the hubby only b/c I didn't know where to put the cam screws!?) so that's a start. Now we just need to decide on a paint color and get the nursery painted and assemble the crib and dresser and we should be ready to move in a baby! :)

Ultrasound Update

Wednesday we had our 20 week ultrasound. The tech took many measurements of baby and said everything is right on track and looks great! She got my hopes up by saying she shows a due date of December 16 which is a few days earlier than initial date so that was kind of exciting! And I know everyone is dying to know if we found out, so here it is...........


It's in an envelope and waiting to be opened, date of opening yet to be determined....:)

Other than that things are going really well with us, both staying busy at work and home!

I have another doctor's appt on Monday to go over the ultrasounds results in more depth so stay tuned!

Update on Baby D

Yesterday I had a doctor's appointment. According to my doctor she said everything is looking great and is the way it should be. My blood pressure was great, few pounds on the scale was good, and the heartbeat was 154. 17 weeks down, 23 to go! My belly was measuring at "18" not sure what that means but she said looks good. 3 weeks until our ultrasound so we are looking forward to that! Summer sure is flying by, hope you are enjoying it!

Two will become Three!

I think most everyone knows by now but we are excited to announce we are going to have a BABY! Due date is December 20. (Hopefully before?!?!) 15 Weeks down, 25 to go!
I have been feeling really great with the exception of being tired but I can deal with that! I have had 2 doctor appointments so far and we have been able to hear the heartbeat both times which is amazing! Next doctor's appointment is July 14 so stay tuned for more updates!
