Quick Update

It seems since I came back to work I'm having difficulty finding the time to update my blog. Things have been great so far. Baby and mommy are doing great. Last week we had our NT scan + blood work done and everything looked great. Baby was measuring right on track well except the head. Bahaha! I guess my baby its going to have a big head measuring exactly a week ahead from the rest of the body. We were looking at some of my baby pictures and J made a joke about baby having my head. I'll have to post the picture even if it's embarrassing.

This pregnancy is finally becoming real to me. J has his moments of worry but I can't deny there's moments I start to think this is too good to be true. Maybe once we find out the gender everything will feel more real. At least in my part it will because I get to go shopping.

Today was my OB appointment and according to their scale I have gained 3 pounds. I'm in denial only for the sole reason that I don't see any change in my body as of yet AND I tend to weigh myself at my moms house. According to her scale I haven't gained  pound. Now I'm curious to know what her scale says. Dr V says my weight gain isn't bad but he wants me to slow down on it to make sure I don't gain to much. J of course tells me I can gain as much as I want he doesn't mind. (Smiling) let's just say he has been experiencing some of my pregnancy symptoms and has gained a pound or three himself. I never actually believed men can experience pregnancy symptoms until I saw it with my own eyes.

After my appointment with Dr V I stopped by my old RE clinic. They're in the same area and I needed to empty out my sharps containers. Hehehe! Everyone was pleased to see me. Dr B was shocked that I wasn't showing yet. She casually asked how far along I was thinking I was 12 weeks. When I told her I was going to be 15 weeks on Sunday she was amazed. I feel like everyone telling me I won't show til 18-20 weeks is going to jinx me and my stomach will start popping overnight. Which I don't mind at all I need something to remind me I'm pregnant. At first I thought I was weird for forgetting sometimes but my cousin said she was the same way. Once she felt the baby move its when it really hit her that she was going to be a mom. Can't wait!

Well for now this is it...need to get to work. Will update later with a bump update later.
