After a month that felt like 4, we finally had another ultrasound yesterday afternoon. Baby Guy is doing great and was wiggling all over my belly. He/she is gonna be just like daddy, because it was sucking its thumb just about the entire time. I've been debating whether I wanted to use pacifiers and it looks like baby has already found what it likes to suck on. =)
Although everything looked normal, the tech said that baby was measuring a little smaller, so the due date has been pushed back to July 29th. That is also Reggie's birthday, so that would be sweet if I delivered then. I'm secretly hoping baby comes on July 11th though, as long as baby is healthy, of course!
Since we had the ultrasound yesterday and one back in December when I had a little scare, the insurance company won't approve another one for a few months, which means we won't be able to find out the gender until the end of March. I was definitely very disappointed in hearing that news, but I'm just happy that Baby Guy is healthy - at the end of the day that's really all that matters.
I really think God is just trying to teach me a little lesson in patience and honestly I need to be taught that lesson pretty often. I struggle with having to wait and it's probably one of the worst things about me. I literally have no patience. God has a not so funny way of teaching us lessons... doesn't he???
I'm undecided as to whether or not we will do a gender reveal party at this point, since I'll be finding out the sex when I'm 22 weeks along. By that time I'll be excited to get busy registering for items for my baby shower!
We spent the previous weekend in Texas visiting my sister and her family. I found a few maternity items at Target and I'm slowly building a wardrobe that fits. I have gained back about 5lbs from the 11 that I had lost since conceiving. With the nausea subsiding all I've wanted to do is Eat. All. The. Food!!! So I've gotta get a hold on my portion sizes again. I 'm really determined to have a healthy weight gain during this pregnancy.
Please continue to keep us and Baby Guy in your prayers!
