Well what an amazing thing that was....we went last night and had the Ultra Sound done...baby is looking good too, healthy in all ways! Baby was doing flips and kicks...at first I thought its a girl...must be....clear as day...then as we were finishing up we both thought we saw boy parts....now we just dont know for sure! We will find out right around Sept 20th!

Stats:

Length: 16cm

Weight: 10oz (almost 1lb!)

Belly and Cheeks: chubby

Fingers and Toes: looked to all be there....

I couldnt find this anywhere....so I was forced to make my own...with little help from Mom-to-Be I might add! I like how it looks like it was made in the 80s!

I'm blogging from my phone, this is pretty sweet, so we'll have an update on week 20, May 7th ultrasound, see you then.

Well I am still traveling for work, that’s why I have not posted in a while. My weeks are busy with work and my weekends busy with The Wife and Bump. She is starting to show some and the sick days seem to be over. She went to the Dr. today, first and only one I will miss, and all is doing just fine heart beat is still in the 150s and Dr. says the baby is galloping.

BUT THE BIGGEST NEWS OF THE DAY!!!! On May 7th is our next appt and we will be seeing the baby for the first time….the next post may very well contain baby’s first photo…..

See you win week 20!

Well week 12 comes to an end...and what an amazing week it was! The sickness is less... not gone but less. The most amazing part was we had our second Dr. Appt. on Friday ("The big day") and we got to hear the heart beat (155 BPM) and the baby moved! Now we know there is something in there....and the boy or girl discussions thickened. I think its a boy, with no scientific reason other then I want a boy. The Wife is now thinking girl...because she has a feeling. Oh and just so you know BPM mean nothing as far as sex at this point.

Well as we enter week 9, sickness has finally come into play. I know she had great hope to get past this point with minimal illness, but not so. Starting on Saturday she started getting sick and it has really not left her. I feel really bad because there is nothing I can do to help her. I just keep telling her to sleep when she wants to sleep and try to keep eating. So now I ask for any pregnant sickness advice for her…Please comment with any you may have.

OH and according to that odd “your baby is the size of a piece of food chart” the baby is now the size of a green Olive.

One thing everyone keeps asking us is, “Are you going to find out what it is going to be?” Well no, we know what it is going to be, a baby. There are few mysteries left in life, we truly want that moment when I can go out to the waiting room and pronounce. “IT’S A …!!” The Wife was behind this since day one, people that know me know I have trouble with this kind of thing and wanted to find out originally. Then I started thinking, yeah I want that moment, and what if they are wrong…tell us it’s a girl, so we get ready for a girl and then the day comes and…OPPS what’s that? It looks like your daughter has a penis. We are planning the nursery to be in neutral colors and once we know, boy or girl, we can pick up the right stuff, Fire Engines or Princesses. Thus far our parents have all been on the same page, somehow they have all got the baby related stuff….more on this in another blog.
