NURSERY IDEAS (WEEK 17)

Here are some favorite nursery ideas...
I really like the turtles for a boy and the purple flowers for a girl.
I'll be sure to post pics once the actual room is complete which will
probably be sometime in May or June.

CHECK UP (WEEK 16)

I had my 16 week check up today and everything is going smoothly. Tummy measurements are normal and the heart rate is 160 bpm (average for week 16 is about 150 bpm). According to the wives' tale, this would probably mean it is a girl. I did however find a chart that pretty much calls it for what it is...a wives tale. It plotted hundreds of pregnancies showing both boys and girls heart rates varying from 125 bpm-180 bpm. Guess we'll have to wait until March 18th to know for sure!

BABY BUMP MAKES IT'S DEBUT (WEEK 14)

Although nearly undetectable to the naked eye, I can't help but notice I've sprouted a tiny baby bump in the last few days. It started about a week ago when my pants became a little too tight for comfort. Not enough to run out and buy maternity clothes but I found myself having to undo the top button just to breathe! So I figure now is a good time to start taking a picture about every 30 days to watch this little baby grow away! This past Wednesday marks 6 months until the big day...we're 1/3 of the way there!
