Week 24

Ok so I know I am a bad blogger, but I will try to get better. So let me catch you up with what has been happening in the baby world.

I went to the doctor last week and finally got some good news. Had another ultrasound and got some really cute pictures and he said it was a girl. My BP was also very good at 117/72, and the best news of all, he said I could go on vacation. I was soo excited I didn't even plan for this vacation because I was not sure I was going to make it. So I have happy to say this Friday I will be leaving for the nice warm state of Florida and will be soaking up some rays!

I have been feeling pretty well other than being tired. I try to schedule a nap in every day.

I have started looking more at baby things and I think I have found the bedding set to decorate the nursery around. It is jungle theme, primary colors, nice and bright. Mikey was very against the whole pink nursery so we stopped that, but I am happy. I went to babies R us with my mom and saw some really cute stuff. When Mikey and I get back from vacation we are going to register, I can't wait for that!

So in a nut shell that is everything. I plan to do some baby shopping when I am in Orlando. From the looks of it there is a nice outlet mall not too far from where we are going with several baby stores in it.

Baby Shopping

So I have officially bought my first baby things today, according to some people I am WAY behind. Had a great weekend. Went looking on Friday with Audrey, we didn't buy anything but found a bunch of cute things. But, today I picked up a glider rocker off craigslist in great shape and a great deal! Also went out with Kim and had a great time. We hit Gymboree and got a couple cute outfits and couple more cute outfits at Kohls. So, from what I keep hearing is i need to get a move on working on the bedroom, so I am going to try and fit some time in next weekend to do that.

I think my colors for the nursery are going to be pink, chocolate brown with some green in it as well. We will see what I come up with, I cannot find a bedding set that I am falling in love with so I think I am just going to mix and match something.

Have another Dr. appointment on Tuesday. My BP has been really good so i am hoping I am going to get the clear to go on vacation in less than 2 weeks! I cannot wait to be soaking up some rays of sun down in Florida. I also plan to do some baby shopping while I am down there.

Will update on Tuesday if anything exciting at the Dr. appointment, he is going to take a quick peek with the ultrasound just to make sure the baby is still a girl :).

Week 21

So, went to see good old Dr. B today. I will say that this appointment went much better than last one. My BP was 130/81, which is awesome for me at this point. He seemed to happy with it. He still told me that going on my vacation is a "coin flip." I was a little disappointed about that, but he sounded a lot more positive this week about me going than last.

I got a sweet little video from my ultrasound last week check it out!

(Ok so I tried to upload it 4 times and it is not working, so I will try again later, Sorry)

He did re-ultrasound me today. He says the baby is very stubborn, Mikey points out like his mom. I don't need anymore comments on that :). Still could not get a great picture of boy or girl parts. Dr. B said that he is almost 95% sure it is a girl so I am going to say it is a girl! It was so funny when he put the probe on my belly the baby made sure to tell him that she was not interested in a picture and elbowed right at it, it was the cutest thing. He said he will check again in 2 weeks.

So, let see what else is going in the baby world. I still have not done anything to get ready for the baby, I will get there. I know "It will be here before I know it." I have been looking for a cute bedding set, but still have not found anything I am in love with, will keep looking. I have been getting really bad heartburn, but if i take my Pepcid it is under control for the most part. In the past 3 days I can definitely feel her moving around a lot more, it is so weird.

Next appointment in 2 weeks, and hopefully I will get the go ahead that I can go on our vacation.
