6 month mark! (24 weeks)

Ahh so excited.
Ive made it to the 6 month mark of pregnancy!! Its so cool reading about whats going on with the baby.
He is 2 pounds, 12 inches long and about the size of a corn on the cob.
His eyes, ears and nails are all developed and now his lungs are developing. I love reading about this.
I cant wait to see him!

Everything is becoming harder and harder to do. I have ran out of breath with everything that I do. Sleep doesnt exist anymore or very little and I love it!

Great Ultrasound

Had an amazing ultrasound today. Baby boy is doing well. He was very active and we only got a few good pics of him. The one we did get looks exactly like DH though. Its kinda funny how the baby can resemble someone so fast in a 4D picture.

Tomorrow is the 22 week mark! We are just truckin along.

Got the money shot...

We had to get a level 2 ultrasound on Monday because my bloodwork came back and the dr said the baby could have spina bifida. So We had our level 2 ultrasound and as far as they could see, the baby is healthy.
We also found out the sex....

Its a BOY!

DH is sooooo excited. His name will be Blake Ryan.

Oh Im in love!

Another ultrasound!

I had another ultrasound yesterday. I thought it was a normal ultrasound and it turned out to be a cervical ultrasound so they could check my cervix because of the blood clot I had 3 weeks ago. Everything turned out fine. The tech we always request even let us see the baby for a bit before the Dr checked the cervix so I could relax a bit. The babys heart rate is at a strong 165. I have to go back in 2 weeks to recheck it. Then the big ultrasound is on August 15!!! Im so excited! 17 weeks today!

weekend away

We took a much needed break this weekend to go have family time up in Michigan. It was so hot up there I was hesistant but got in the lake anyways. Ive read you can catch some form of bacteria but I needed to cool down. The water was nice but too warm. I got sun burned too. It still hurts!

Today marks 16 weeks! I cant believe how fast its flying by now.
I also have about 2.5 more weeks of school then Im done!

NT scan

We had our NT scan on Monday and everything is looking great! The baby was moving like crazy and smiling at us. My heart melted.

The heart rate went from 178 to 160. The tech said it is still really high so Im not worried. Im thinking its still a girl. DH thinks its a boy. We will see soon.....

We scheduled the BIG scan for August 10- DHs birthday!

Welcome to the 2nd tri! :)

what a great b-day present!!!

Wednesday was my 27th birthday. I got the best gift of all. We got to see our baby on an ultrasound screen. IT was amazing. The baby is measuring right on track to my calculations so the due date is Dec 27. The heart rate is 178 give or take. We are both thinking we are having a girl. I will have to wait and see though.

Im so excited.

If we wait til the 20 week mark, we will find out the sex of the baby on DHs birthday.

Happy Birthday to us!
