She's a mover

She has really started moving around a lot lately. Just last Thu and Fri I really started to feel her going! I was getting ready for a garage sale and all the work made her get really active. It was pretty cool. I could actually see my belly move a bit on the right side. She seems to be hanging out on the right a lot.

Libby and Jim both got to feel her move as well which was pretty exciting.

I think I overworked myself this weekend though, because I feel really crappy today. I hope to get some rest though and will hopefully be better tomorrow.

She's a mover

Starting last week, she has really started moving around a lot. I can feel her when I am doing a lot of moving. She tends to hang out on my right side a lot and it is really cool. I have even seen my belly move already. Libby and Jim have both felt her move as well. It is pretty exciting to feel the movement. Makes it more real!

I have not been feeling good today :( I think I did too much over the weekend and got really worn out. Hopefully I will get over it today and be back to feeling a little better tomorrow.

Another good checkup

I went to my regular OB for a checkup today. All is going well. Her heartbeat was 150. I had some blood drawn for the quad screening tests.

Today overall I have not felt the best. I had a bad nights sleep and it was really humid today. So that combination had me wake up with nausea and just an icky feeling all day. I really hope this all passes soon!

It will be nice to enjoy more than one day in a row :)

Pretty Sure It's a Girl

Went to the high risk doc today and had an ultrasound. Everything looks good and normal for the baby. He could not see 100% - but he is pretty sure it's a girl! I go back on July 9 and of course we will reaffirm this. But we are both believing it's a girl as there was definitely nothing "sticking out" :)

She looked healthy and was laying on her tummy over the septum in my uterus. The placenta was attached in a good spot and not on the septum which the doctor says is a good thing! The cervix still looked good. If it continues to look good next time, I might get to hold off on the progesterone shots for a bit!

I go to Dr Gernhardt - my regular OB next week for my regular check up. Stay tuned....

Libby Speaks

Libby had a dream last night that the baby is a boy. And she told me today she had one of those "feelings". Last time she had a "feeling" she told me I was pregnant before I even tested. And she was right. So we will have to wait and see. Hopefully June 20 will be the day!

Libby Speaks

So Libby told me today that the baby is a boy. She had a dream last night and one of her "feelings". She was right with her feeling that I was pregnant before I could even test. So we will see if she is right about this as well. Hopefully we will find out on June 20.

Your question answered -

I received this comment on my blog.

"How thoughtful, will you be doing this blog until the baby is here? Please answer on your blog. By the way you can web search other blogs, that's how I found yours. How many children have you had?"

And to answer your question, YES I will be blogging on this baby's progress until the magical delivery date! And perhaps beyond! It is a great way to journal the progress and share it with friends, loved ones and anyone looking for answers. I have done a lot of research on other web sites and read a lot of other blogs as well. It is so intriguing to hear about the various pregnancies and the ups and downs.

I currently have 2 children. Although one is a young adult now - he is 20 and my daughter is 11. What a whirlwind life. And as I said before - this baby was planned. My husband and I decided that we wanted one more chance to bring a new life into the world! And after 6 months of trying, we were successful. This pregnancy has been very different than the last two. Perhaps it is my age - who knows. But it is exciting none the less and I would not trade the opportunity for the world!
