Dippin' Dot Update

So my appointment with the midwives is switched from next Monday to this Friday. I have been experiencing frequent headaches and swelling in my ankles (already-yikes!). I am 17 weeks along today. Not looking forward to the summer if I have to hide my cankles...lol.


We are going to do all the labs and blood work on Friday. I thought I felt a quick a little flutter the other day, but not entirely sure if it was Dippin' Dot or not...


I will let you know how the appt goes and if my blood work comes back okay....fingers crossed!

We have exciting news!

March 1 - Visit with the midwives

So, we went in to hear Dippin' Dot's (that's the baby's nickname for now =)) heartbeat for the second time and it came in strong and clear. Our next appointment is set for the 29th of this month. We will be doing all of our lab work then. We were supposed to do it this time, but the midwives had been at a delivery that morning and had to push our appointment back to later that same day.


We will have our first ultrasound at 22 weeks, but we aren't going to find out if we're having a boy or a girl...we want to be surprised!


I am starting to show, and have been for a while already...lol. Wednesday will be week 15 already! Will post pictures once I look more "pregnant"...lol

February '10

Just setting up our new family blog for those who are not local to follow the growing belly and family...we are excited to welcome our new addition!

I hear it goes by fast, but it still feels pretty far away...six months til our special delivery. We have decided not to find out the sex of the baby...

We should have our first ultrasound at 22 weeks, so another couple of months. Hopefully there won't be any obvious signs to give away the sex of the baby at that time.

Signing off for now...til next time!
