20 Weeks 3 Days

We went to the doctor on Wednesday to have the 20 week ultrasound and ..............it's a boy! More importantly though, everything looked good. We could clearly see Smudgy and all his parts. The spine was a little creepy but I'm glad it's there! It's amazing what can happen in 13 weeks. I still can't believe it.

Thursday I went for my regular appointment. My blood pressure was normal for the first time so fingers crossed that it stays that way. I asked the doctor what will happen if it goes back up and he told me that I would be on bed rest and would most likely have the baby around 38 weeks. It's only two weeks difference but it actually takes the birthday from January to December, after Christmas to before and from 2010 to 2009! Weird.

I got to hear the heart beat again and I could hear kicks too! It's so strange that I can hear the baby moving and see him moving but I can't feel it. As violent as it looks though I've stopped being in a hurry!

20 Weeks

We're halfway there! I can't believe it, it's gone really fast so far. Don't worry, I know the last half is harder. We go for the ultrasound tomorrow that should tell us if Smudgy is a girl or a boy. I'm really excited, and nervous. I haven't felt Smudgy yet, at least I don't think I have. I know that it's too early to worry but I will anyway until I see that heartbeat tomorrow.
