We had our ultrasound on March 29th but the baby decided it wasn't time for us to find out yet. I was so sad, but then I felt bad for being sad because the baby was completely healthy. Darn hormones! Weight was 7/10 lb and we are within one day of our due date. We were calling the baby stubborn baby and he/she nodded the head as if to say "Yea what's your point!" It was so cute!! I had a follow up appointment Wednesday and have only gained another 2 lbs in the past month. Most days you would not even know I was pregnant because I certainly don't look any different yet. Not complaining....just want my baby bump to be official. Peanut, which is all I can call the baby yet, was facing downward for the ultrasound and wasn't moving much all last week which totally freaked me out. I started feeling kicks again on Tuesday and it has not slowed down since. We played our first game last night, where peanut kicked, then I rubbed where I felt kicks, and then I would get kicked again. It was almost like "Tag you're it!"


We go back May 7th, which a day after my birthday and right before Mother's Day. I am hoping that peanut will cooperate and give mommy a great Mother's Day shot! I am content with the fact that if nothing else my baby is absolutely gorgeous and healthy either way. It's not like I won't eventually find out anyways. I still think this one is a stubborn little girl, but we shall see.


I was borderline gestational diabetes this last time, so they will do another 1 hour test just to make sure. I will be more careful with what I eat that morning. The Dr. did not seem too worried about it, even though I did ask what it would mean if I did not pass the blood test this time and she kinda went through that with me. I have been so good through most of my pregnancy and it certainly doesn't help that this little one has a sweet tooth from time to time. I totally skipped the hugely iced cupcake at work yesterday, even though it looked SO good.

  1. Sounds like your pregnancy is perking right along. You're lucky not to be gaining much weight. Won't be long and you'll hold that little peanut in your arms. :)
