16w3d
Part of me can't believe I am here. 16 and a half weeks pregnant! It seems like only yesterday I was blogging about planning for our wedding day and now here I am blogging about my first pregnancy.
I would be lying if I said I haven't been worried at times throughout this pregnancy. I think that is normal. But, being my first, not knowing exactly what to expect and having anxiety to begin has made me a nervous wreck at times.
Recently, for instance, I have been feeling like I am at this weird in between stage. My last ultrasound was when I was just 12 weeks or so. We heard the heartbeat for the first time 2 weeks ago, and now I have to wait until Sept. 28th for my next ultrasound. It is too early for me to really feel the baby moving, although I think I may be feeling it every so often, but again with nothing to compare it to, I am not sure. I am showing, but people could still just think I have put on weight.
I guess in my ideal world, I would be seeing my baby on the ultrasound and hearing the heartbeat WAY more often. It makes me nervous to not know for sure that everything is okay. Do I think everything is okay, yeah. But there is always a sense of security when you know for sure from a doctor.
Just now as I was typing a felt some kind of little bubbly like feeling in my stomach... that being said, I did just eat dinner too. See what I mean?! Who knows if it was digestion or the baby!
On Sept. 28th we find out if our child is a boy or a girl. I have had a few dreams about having a boy and a lot of people seem to think it is a boy...but we will see. I will be happy as long as the baby is healthy.
We have one boys name and one girls name picked out and we have decided to wait until we share that with everyone as that is one thing we can keep to ourselves for now. Just like the wedding, everyone knows every detail of every part of this whole thing. So, the name will be something we keep just for us until we are ready to share it.
I have generally been feeling good. the morning sickness has subsided which is great, and I am all about eating now. My appetite is back in full swing and I have been eating as healthy as I can while still giving in to cravings here and there.
I have had some headaches but nothing serious and nothing too often. A few minor backaches but again, nothing too crazy.
I am full swing into maternity clothes, as they are much more comfy than my regular clothes and they give my belly plenty of room.
My husband has been very supportive and understanding through everything. We are both so so excited and feel SO very blessed. We're just ecstatic and I am anxious to find out if we will bring a son or a daughter into the world!
