16 weeks

I had my 16 week appointment today and everything is looking good. I gained 6lbs from my last appointment (yikes!) but my doctor was happy with my weight. I think I need to start eating better though. Baby's heartbeat was in the 150's and we should have our big ultrasound in the next 2-3 weeks (we should get to schedule it tomorrow). My regular OB had to send a script over to the high risk specialist's office which is where the ultrasound will be and I should get a call from them tomorrow to schedule it.

My gender dream

So, I dreamed last night that we were at a doctors office (I never remember my dreams but this is my 2nd that I've remember so far since being pregnant). It wasn't my OB's office or the high risk specialists office so I'm not sure why we were there but the doctor asked us if we wanted to know the sex and we said yes. So, he started the ultrasound but he was taking forever and he kept goofing around. He would say "there's the profile" but when I would look at the screen I could only see the reflection of the doctor's face. And then I woke up before I found out what the sex was. Darn it.

Making our hearts melt

Eva has started randomly coming up to either myself or Aaron and giving us a hug and then saying "I love you mommy" or "I love you daddy". It just doesn't get any better than that.

12 week prenatal appointment

and all is well. It was a routine, boring appt. which are the kind that I prefer. I only gained 0.8 pounds since my last appt. which totally surprised me so that was great. My blood pressure is perfect, all my tests have been perfect to this point, fundal height is right on, got to listen to bub's heartbeat. My next appt. is in 4 weeks and then my big ultrasound will be 2 or 3 weeks after that. I just looked and if we schedule it for exactly 3 weeks after my next appt., it will be on my birthday. I can't think of a better birthday present. So, we'll see if that works out.

Baby #3 is on the way

We had a great appt. with the doctor today and got to see baby on ultrasound and see the little heart beating. Baby measured 8 weeks and 3 days and was perfect. And I love the doctor that we are using this time, he is amazing. Baby is due August 29th, Eli's birthday.

Operation No Binkie was a bust

So, after 5 days of Eva crying herself to sleep and us having to stay in the room with her for an hour every night for her to even go to sleep, we gave in and gave her binkies back. The last night of no binkies Eva only slept 6 hours (she normally sleeps 12) which means that I got even less sleep and I just couldn't do it anymore. So, we'll try again at a later date.
