We're on the home stretch and we still have so much to do! Time is going so quickly this time around.
Size: Eggplant
Gender: Blue is our color
Name: It will be a surprise!
Symptoms: sinus pressure, increase in carpal tunnel issues, vivid dreams, tire easily, sensitive gums, toothache, round ligament pain, back pain
Emotions: Excited and anxious. We have not begun on the nursery transformation and the fact that time is dwindling is weighing on me. I feel like so many things have been put on hold and they are outside of our control. This is a definite time of refinement and character building.
Doctor’s Visit:
March 27th- Baby boy had a great heartbeat and my blood pressure looked good.
April 6th - We had another ultrasound to get the remaining measurements. The baby looked wonderful and they could get what they needed. My placenta has not moved in the past 4 weeks so I'll have another ultrasound on May 15th.
April 14th- I was having some really strange back pains since the night before. They reminded me of the contractions I had with our daughter. My doctor had me come in and based on my sympptoms, I was sent to Labor and Delivery. I was monitored there for 3 hours. Everything checked out ok.
April 16th- Dentist appointment for a cleaning. I have to return after the baby to have 1 major cavity filled and then he'll take care of four others that are borderline. This kid is zapping my teeth of calcium and minerals!
Movement: He's pretty active these days, and quite powerful.
Cravings: eggs, donuts, cereal, pizza and BBQ pork rinds
Aversions: primarily smells and Mexican food
According to Big Sister: She's still not "wanting" a baby at the house but she loves to acknowledge that there is one in mommy's tummy.

Happy birthday to you and your little girl! AND congrats on your baby boy on the way! I'm so glad I ran across your blog on Mommy Moments. We're only a month apart with our second babies and I was wondering if you make a baby #2 registry or not! Now I know :) I really need to get on that...
