Due Date Moved Up:)

So today was my 20w appt, the norm pee in a cup, check your blood pressure, heartbeat, and measurement! Everything is good ;) Dr. Gave results back for blood work and anatomy scan. Blood work came back good for downs and cystic, which means baby is very low risk of having it. Blood work showed 1 in 800 then with the scan results it went to 1 in 3300! So that is great news! He also said the anatomy scan looked good baby is doing great and growing fine. Baby also measured 5 days ahead. So my due date changed to 1/6/13. Very exciting. Maybe it will be a christmas or new years baby :) I still have a hunch that this little boy will be here in DEC. Don't know why but im just convinced! so instead of 20 weeks I am now 20w 5 days almost a week ahead of schedule :) I only gained 1 pound again. Im sure i will start gaining more soon! but in the meantime I'm glad I have no been one to gain that much, considering I had some lbs to spare :)

20 w 5 days

 Mommy is feeling great! Although I have been getting a lot of anxiety, and these past couple weeks have been stressful! Doc says i need to stay away from stress... so I cut out the fat and the problems in my life and im starting to feel a lot lighter :) I do have lots more energy, although I do get out of breath more often then not. School started again and Im taking a full schedule 4 classes and going 4 days a week. So I have been a busy little bee :) Its good though it keeps my mind occupied, and I really like my Psych class. I think I might make a career out of it, we shall see. By the time school is done I will be ready to pop! Just in time for baby :)! Very excited to have my parents and sisters here when baby boy comes, especially around the holidays!

So last weekend Brian and I went shopping for some newborn clothes and blankets and such. I have always been drawn to girl clothes everytime I go into a store. But there are actually such cute little boy clothes! I loved it I had so much fun! Frogs and giraffes and elephants! We bought some recieving blankets and some sox, and onesies and some PJ's. Im soo excited I just want to hold my little boy! Next thing on our list is the play pen/ pack and play. We have decided to use that as our bassinet as well. We dont' really see a point in the bassinet( yes its smaller) but why waste more money when the pack and play is just as comfortable as the bassinet. Which personally i don't think either of those plastic mattress are comfy, but whatever!

Well thats pretty much everything exciting thats happened lately. Next month have to do some more bloodwork, my glucose testing to make sure my body is proccesing that sugar! arghhh! Hopefully everything turns out just fine! but until then.....

Baby Feet :)

So last Wednesday the 15th was the anatomy scan for the baby, The tech seemed to be sure that everything was good and we have a healthy happy boy on our hands. I haven't heard from the doctor after the scan so I am assuming NO news is GOOD NEWS! I have my 20 week appt on Friday and I will get the results of my blood work and anatomy scan. Im thinking everything turned out just fine:) or I'm sure they would of called me.

So its exciting to finally know what I am growing in my belly! Its exciting to know what I can shop for now :) Little boy stuff is soo cute, he is going to be such a little rock star! My family could not be more thrilled to be adding a boy into the family after 4 girls! and 2 granddaughters and only 1 grandson so far. So finally we will have number 2 boy on the way in the fam.

Baby boy is moving like crazy! he is sitting super low and i swear he is playing on top of my bladder! Tonight I was laying in bed and felt a kick and i actually felt it on my hand through my stomach this time which was very exciting!!! Its so reassuring to feel him move! I can't wait for his arrival, I know he will make my life just a little bit brighter, nothing compares to what i feel for this little one already, I am sooo inlove with him!

18 Weeks 4 Days

Oh hello Baby Bump and maternity shorts, Yup its official I am in the spandex band shorts! ahhh. Although I still have not gained a pound! Somedays I do if i eat too much but mostly I have remained the same! Which is great! Maybe baby is eating all my stored Fat! bahahah! Otherwise I feel great!

Sooo even though Im going to blog tomorrow I just couldn't stay away Im WAY TOOO EXCITED! Soo Tomorrow we find out if Baby is on Team Pink or Team Blue! Im soo anxious I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep tonight! I have very vivid dreams that the tech is pointing out the peepee and saying ITS a boy, but then I sit there and think that what if it is a Girl! I don't know. Its all soo weird that we will be finding out, I am kind of nervous because I feel like i went all this way without knowing, why not just wait and and be surprised?!?!?! But then I would feel very unprepared and Brian Really really really wants to know! Plus everytime we go into the store to buy something nuetral we veer towards not buying it because we want to wait till we know! ahhh! I just can't believe the day has finally come!!!!

So back to school for me next week! I have 4 classes this semester and the semester ends exactly when i will be 9 months! I hope i don't get warn out and tired or too big to drive! Plus I have speech this semester so i will be nice and big and pregnant and giving speeches! YIKES!

Well i guess Life has been boring... Until tomorrow!!!!
