First off, I want to let all the new people know "Welcome and Congrats!!"
I have been reading a lot of intro posts and it makes me happy. =)
Today I am 16 weeks + 2
Symptoms: Headaches, nausea/vomiting if I skip a meal (I try not to), pressure on my bladder all the freaking time (I swear I am already starting to waddle), I am sure there is a little more symptoms but I am pretty good for the most part (which slightly worries me) oh and increased sex drive (hubby bragged to coworkers) Oh! Of course, still severe baby brain. Lol
Let's see, what's been going on with my life? Nothing out of the usual really. I still don't have a bump (big girl), but when I lie down I definitely feel where a bump is barely there. My 16 week appointment is tomorrow morning at either 9 or 9:30. I lost my paper and I don't have a phone active to call. I am hoping they can hear the heartbeat on the doppler this time. (Anterior placenta) If not, I wouldn't mind waddling to the @spiritualtranscendence room and getting a sneak peek. Mayyyyybe find the gender??? Lol
At my 20 week Anatomy scan is the only time my doc will look for the gender. Fingers crossed everything is A-okay. We opted out of the NT scan. I did see the little one at 12 weeks and wished I asked for a pic. I only have the 8 week one. My dad decided he will be getting hubby and I a pack-n-play that has an attatched bassinet and baby changer. (It is so pretty. Let me see if I can find a picture to edit in here http://www.walmart.com/ip/Ingenuity-Washable-Playard-Whimsical-Wonders/25507985). My Aunt demanded hubby and I to not buy anything until after the baby shower (which we will be having 2 of them) and my dad said I am not allowed to help my mother in law put together the baby shower. I told him too bad, I want some control and I want it awesome. Plus, only I know what weekends hubby has off. I decided I want one of them the weekend between mine and hubby's birthday. Mine is the 10th of Oct and his is the 15th of Oct (yeah, I am exactly 5 days older than him). It would be a fun birthday for us. Plus I don't want it in November cause my sister's birthday is the 4th and she turns 18 (I am due the 6th of December). I want to choose the theme at least.
So hubby has finally decided he hopes we have a girl, which SERIOUSLY freaks me out that we're going to have a boy first. Everyone in my family and his had boys first. I also feel that because I want a girl so bad, it will be a boy. I really really really really REALLY want to use Evangeline as a name. For a boy, hubby gets to choose and he wants to name him after himself and his father.
Anyways, thanks for reading all this stuff!! Big hugs to everyone out there!
Edit: Ahhhhhh!!! Forgot mine and hubby's 4 year wedding anniversary is Thursday!!!! Stupid baby brain!
