Almost 16 Weeks!



Here are some pics of me at almost 16 weeks! I'm getting bigger which is neat. I'm so thankful to God for giving us such a treasure! He is sooooooo good!

P.S. I took these pics by myself and they are kind of from a weird angle, so try to ignore that if you can help it! :)

Hear the Baby's Heartbeat

We just got a cheap doppler in the mail today. We can now listen to our baby's heartbeat whenever we want! SOOOO Cool!

The first heartbeat that plays is mine, then you can hear the baby's heartbeat come in at a much faster rate. There are a couple of kicks recorded too. You can tell the baby is moving around because the sound of the heartbeat fades away and then comes in much stronger at the end.

Look on the menu bar on the right and click the > to play!

14 Week Check-up

We had our 14 week check-up today with the doctor. We heard the baby's heartbeat and it was beating at 154 bpm. The normal range is 120-160. We won't see the baby again until our next routine ultrasound at 18 weeks. At that time we should find out if we're having a boy or girl!

13 Weeks!



Here are some pics of me at 13 weeks (or the day before). The "pooch" has grown a tad which is something to get used to. I thought the nausea was completely gone, but I'm finding that it comes and goes. Overall it's much better though! :)

No More Nausea!!!

I'm happy to report that two days ago, like a switch turning off, the nausea finally stopped! I'm a happy girl at this point! But I'm still hungry a lot of the time!

Jumping Jelly Bean!

Today we had another doctor visit. I'm 12 weeks and 3 days along. We've been blessed and spoiled to have ultrasounds each time we've gone to the doctor so far. They are keeping a close watch on our little one which is nice! Today was so exciting because it was the first time we got to see our baby move! It jumped at least twice and did a few other movements here and there! It is still measuring perfectly for its gestational age. This whole process has been so amazing! We are so thankful for this wonderful gift! God is soooo good!














We'll go back to the doctor again on October 7th, then after that we won't go again until I'm about 18 weeks along. We hope to find out at the 18 week visit if this baby is a boy or girl.

11 1/2 Weeks!



Here are a couple pics of my 11 week old baby bump! My mother-in-law got this maternity shirt for me. It says "Baby loves mommy" in several different languages! :) What a sweet thought!

I go back to the doctor on September 25th!
