It's a GIRL!

The ultrasound this morning was so cool! She was moving around and sucking her thumb. It was so cute! It definitely makes it seem more real. I can't wait to buy something pink :)

For the Record...

I think it's a girl. I have no idea why I think that, just a gut feeling. I'm so excited to find out tomorrow. Obviously I will be happy either way, but I just want to know if there is anything behind this. Plus, if it is a girl, I'm hoping for tons of hand me downs :) hint, hint Christy and Valerie :)

I also felt the baby move for the first time this week. I went home early from work on Monday because I had a really bad headache. I was laying on the couch and felt 3 little thumps. I wasn't even sure if it was the baby but now I really think it was :) Last night I woke up because there was a really bad storm and I felt the baby moving around again. It's the weirdest feeling (and very faint) but it was really exciting.

Pregnancy Insanity....

So, I had my first emotional breakdown this weekend. It was pretty funny because it was so stupid...

First, on Saturday night, Sean was doing laundry. He pulled one of my new maternity shirts out of the dryer and one of the ties had gotten caught in the dryer and ripped off. This was the second one. Of course, I was upset because I only have like 6 shirts that I can wear and the 2 that got messed up were my favorites. I didn't cry, but I came very close. I just threw the rest of my laundry on the table without folding it and laid back down on the couch. In my defense, my wardrobe is still very small in the maternity clothes department and the clothes are expensive!

On Sunday morning, I woke up with a headache. I made myself a bagel and some eggs and then of course threw that up. My 5 good days back at week 15 lasted just that long. 5 days without throwing up and now I'm back to daily. I just couldn't take it anymore. I'm just so tired of being sick and tired. I cried for about 5 minutes until the dog felt sorry for me and started licking my face.

For me, it's just so weird. I'm definitely not a crier. I just have to remind myself that it's the hormones :) Isn't pregnancy fun!

16 Weeks

Today was my 16 week appointment. I had an ultrasound to check my cervical length (b/c of the surgery I had a few years ago). Everything was fine. I got to see the baby bouncing around and hear the heartbeat. In the picture, the baby looks like it is sucking it's thumb :) It was really exciting. The doc says everything looks good.

I'm finally starting to feel better this week (other than a sick morning - probably just nervous about my appointment). Hopefully this is the end of it and everything will go smoothly for the next 26 weeks.

I'm still waiting to feel the baby move. Sometimes I think I might feel something, but I can't tell yet.
