17 Weeks ~ Little One Might Be a..........................


We don’t know for sure because we could'nt get the best look. From what we did see the Doctor said it looked very "vaginaish". So we won’t need any clothes, and Ava’s room can remain purple for now.
We didn’t have an appointment scheduled until next Monday but, for some reason about a week ago, I started worrying something was wrong. No real reason other than I hadn’t felt much movement lately. Which, I know, at this point means nothing, but the pregnancy OCD got to me. I have a really great Dr. so I decided to take advantage of that and get some peace of mind, so off we went.
I was so worried I would go in there and find something terrible had happened to our little one. Thank god as far as we could see everything seemed fine. There was a wonderful little heartbeat, 2 hands and 10 fingers, proportionate stomache to head, maybe just a little small. Other than that pretty much perfect

4 months/16 weeks

So far so good, just growing. I have decided to pick up my exercise again. It’s not that I haven’t been exercising but I definitely slacked off in the 1st Trimester, I just felt so crummy I couldn’t get motivated to get out everyday. So far this week I have made sure to get out everyday and I am feeling so much better. I was so out of shape when Ava arrived and I am determined not to let that happen again.
We find out what our little one is on April 14th and I could just about die, I am so excited. I don’t have a feeling either way but I have had a couple of people look at my belly and say I was carrying low so "a boy".
