19 weeks 2 days

Today was our doctor's appt. Everything seems great and my doctor released me from bedrest today due to the great results of the ultrasound last week. She seems extremely pleased. I was shocked to hear of my total 9lb weight gain. I know it's inevitable, but it just seemed like alot to have gained already. I guess 9 pounds isn't too bad considering I had no morning sickness and have spent the last 6 weeks on bedrest with NO exercise. We are pleased to say that we are almost halfway till time to meet our new little man :)

I'm starting to stress about the baby furniture. I have no idea why...maybe it's the halfway point causing it, but I really think we need to work on getting this baby boy a bed!!

November 24th....Anatomy Ultrasound

Today was the most exciting day of this whole experience. We had our anatomy ultrasound today. We scheduled it for today knowing the kids would be out of school. We wanted them to be able to experience it with us and to see their baby brother for the very first time. It was a great experience for them. They had the same reaction as most parents to be do. For the first time, the baby seemed REAL to them, after getting to see him move and kick. They both had priceless remarks to make. Trevor told us afterwards that he wishes he was married now...LOL

Our baby boy is perfectly healthy from what they can tell. His heart, kidney, and brain were perfect. He is already measuring a little big. Due to JK's birthweight, I already expected a big baby. Knowing he's already a big boy kinda scares me ;)

The other problem I had seems to be almost gone. My doctor was extremely happy with the results. The blood clot has become small and there are no signs of further problems. The day was perfect for us and will make for a great Thanksgiving tomorrow :)
