18 weeks!! We are well on our way. Survived my 1st trimester wow! No one really told me how fun that would be...yikes! I thought pregnancy was going to be this fun
experience where you glow, get fat, and feel a baby inside you. I heard about morning sickness but isn't that just in the morning?
Umm no. I was
nauseous all day, heartburn all day and
extremely tired. The afternoons at my desk were a killer. Not to mention the ever growing dry patch on my face which now is a dry rash the encircles my entire mouth. Yeah fun and looks hot. There better be a light at the end of this tunnel ....
hahaha yeah a baby :) Well
despite all the body changes and hormones we are thrilled! I got a stack of books from the library that we are reading on a weekly basis to keep up with my body changes and the growth of our little one. I've been gaining weight but my belly hasn't popped out very much yet so we wait and our signs that the baby
exists are our visits to the Dr when we get to hear the heartbeat. We had our big anatomy scan
Friday and we got the watch our ultrasound for well over an hour. We were just beside ourselves with awe. More like
speechless. We had already planned to find out the results of the gender but requested it in a sealed envelope not wanting to know there in the office. We both watched as she looked for the gender but haven't got a clue what we were look at so we don't know
despite peeking. So Chris dropped off the envelope to our friend Erin who is making us a cake for this Saturday. We are doing a birthday party for me/sex reveal for the baby. The inside icing of the cake will reveal blue or pink. After sitting there for over an hour watching our little one move it's arms & legs, open and close it's mouth I'm dying to find out....are you a boy or a girl? Momma wants to go shopping!!! :)
