Ultrasound on 9/20 19.5 weeks pregnant

You can see her nose and ear. Her little hand is up by her face, you can see a couple of fingers!


Baby foot!


It’s a girl!!! I think Damon and I are both in a state of shock. Of course we are happy but we really were expecting a boy. I just knew that inside was a boy, but nope it’s a little girl! I think it will be for the best, she is going to have Damon wrapped around her little finger and now all Damon has are girls (me, annie the cat, keiko and zoe) :o) So now we are on the task to start thinking of little girl names!

With the ultrasound machine they checked the baby's brain and heart. They measured the length of her bones, head and overall body. From the measurements she weighs 11 ounces! They identified both of her little ovaries so there is no mistake that it is a girl! :)

Damon The Baby Whisperer

Before:


Labor Day weekend Damon and I decided to go to Paris, TN to visit family. We got to meet our new little nephew Gavin. When we got there Saturday morning Gavin was not a happy boy and was crying. Damon held him and rubbed his little belly and soon the little guy was off to sleep. The pics are so cute that I had to post them :)

Dr. Appt on 8/31/10

This appointment was very quick. Dr. Spetalnick checked the baby’s heart beat it was 140-150 beats a minutes and is about 7 3/4" long.

I have lost another 2-3 pounds. Dr. Spetalnick isn’t very happy about that and told me that I don’t need to lose any more weight. I said well I just bought a treadmill this past weekend (yard sale $20, I rule) and he said you can walk on it just don’t lose weight. I was like...uhh then why would I walk on it? I don’t really have a baby belly just looks like fat. It's hard to believe that there really is a baby in there. I can tell that all my organs are being pushed up in my chest because the top part of my stomach is hard. Apparently at this stage some woman can feel the baby hiccup and move - I unfortunately can’t feel a dang thing.

The best part of the appointment was he told me that I needed to schedule ANOTHER appointment for the ultrasound. I thought we were going to do it on 9/28 when we had to see him but NOPE! We have to schedule a separate appointment b/c it is in a different office. Totally pumped I made the appointment as soon as humanly possible but still close to the 20 week mark. We are going on 9/20 at 2pm to find out if its a boy or girl! I will be right at 19 weeks and 3 days! :)

Love,
Katie
