Drs Appointment today, and all is well! The baby is doing great and I saw the heart beating! YAY! The baby measured 8wks 5days along which has me due a little earlier then the 17th more like the 15th but 2 days is not much of a big deal to me...So anyways, everything is good and my BP was low too!:) only 122/65!! and I am starting this pregnancy 18lbs lighter then with Alana! YAY!

I am feeling a lot better now that I saw the baby and saw the heart beating...That is good news and everything is developing normally...I could even see little arm and leg buds in the ultrasound...:) so neat! Well that's all the update for now!:) Ill probably be taking another belly picture here soon...not that much has changed! lol!:)

Next Appointment is July 10th at 10am!:)

Just a belly picture, even though there isn't any change really..:) I am still taking them so I figured I might as well put 1 up! Its all just left over from Alana still:)

Had another doctors appointment today. All is going great. since I had a little bit of a scare with some bleeding around my last appointment my doctor wanted to do another ultrasound instead of just listening to the heart beat so I got to see the little peanut again and he/she is getting big! :) wiggling around everywhere but I still cant feel a thing and probably wont for a few weeks still. other then that my BP was 110/60 so that is great, and I actually lost a couple of pounds:) YAY me!:) Nothing else new from there. Ill be posting another belly picture soon:)

I am feeling better some days more than others...the energy comes and goes which I think has to do with the fact that I have a 1 year old to chase around this time!:) but I am managing ok...the stress of moving and getting the house to sell is kind of starting to take over though since we are moving in right about 3 months from now! ugh! Hopefully it will all just come together!:)

Next Appointment: August 6th, 10am

13wks 1d
  
Just belly pictures again since I have been asked by 3 random people in public already when I am due!?!?!? I guess that means I am showing now to the public eye...UGH!! I am only 13 weeks but I guess I do have a belly already! they say with the 2nd you show sooner...Guess it's true!

16wks 5ds
  
Had a doctors appointment on the 6th, and everything is going normal. My BP was 110/60 nice and low, and I gained a little weight but nothing major...I just wish I hadn't gained anything yet. Stress makes me eat I guess LOL. Other then that they scheduled my next/last appointment with this OB for the 24th of August, and hopefully will be able to see the sex of the baby! so everyone pray that we can see! so Kevin and I can start the battle of a name!:) LOL That's about it I guess, Ohh and the picture is 15wks 3ds:)

Next appointment - August 24th 11am
 

23 weeks 1 day
 
Last doctors appointment I had was on the 24th of August and all was well, I was supposed to get an ultrasound that day but the doctor decided to be rude and not do it, so I had to wait until I got to FL and pay to have one done. My BP was good and low, its normal 117/70 and baby's heart rate was normal. I had gained a little more weight bringing my total to about 12lbs, which I am not too happy about, but life goes on I guess.

I did go and have an ultrasound done in FL on the 21st of September, and we were able to see the sex of this new little one, and.............

IT'S A BOY!!!

We are going to name him Damien, but we are still working on a middle name...or I should say Kevin is still working on the middle name!:) I got Ultrasound pictures and a short video! We are both very excited to have a boy this time and I cant wait to meet our new little man!!

I will update with the future doctors appointment as soon as I find a doctor in North FL, where we are hoping to buy our new house!:)
 

27 weeks 1 day
 
Just some new belly shots to keep up with the fun:) No doctors appointments yet, but hopefully in the next week or so I should be able to get up there and find a doctor and the like... we will see how the house situation goes! :) Enjoy!:)

Well I finally got referred out to an OB here in the area. I was actually able to get referred to the OB that delivered my little brother, Dr J. So I had a doctors appointment last week with Dr J, and he is great! He is an old fashioned doctor and I love it. I am 95% sure that I will be delivering at Winter Park Hospital near the family and not in GA. Since we wont be closing on our house until the middle of December, we wouldn't have enough time to get referred out again. So anyways, I went to see the doctor and everything is going well still. Damien is measuring right on track, his heartbeat was strong and Dr J sent me out for an ultrasound to do all kinds of measurements and all, and also sent me to have the gestational diabetes test. I should get all the results of those tests when I go back again on the 28th. My BP was a little high this time but probably since we were sitting in the waiting room with Alana for over an hour at 8am! lol and I have gained a total of 28lbs so far... More then with Alana at this point but I'm still not at the weight I was with her this time. So I guess its not too bad. :) That's it for now.

Next appointment - November 28th 2007
 

Had the 3D ultrasound done on the 27th of November and it was more exciting this time since I had company with me! Dad, Noni, Aunt Jan, and Mom went with me! The scan was great as usual, I was expecting it to be a bit longer and show more of the rest of Damien other then just his face! but at least I got to see him!:) and that was fun! Here are the pictures from the scan and I will see if I can figure out how to put clips of the U/S its self on here? not sure about that though!

Doctors appointment - Went to the doctors today, and all is well as usual. My BP was normal at 122/83. and Damien's heart rate is normal and strong. I gained 7lbs in 3 weeks <no thanks to turkey day!:(> and the doc just said to take it easy, and try not to keep gaining that fast! <trust me doc I have no intentions!!!> I also told the doctor I was concerned about him being big like Alana was 8lbs 3 weeks early, and he said that what he would do is at 37 weeks he would strip my membranes and try to get me to start labor on my own if I haven't by then, and if nothing happens from there until 39 weeks he will induce on a day of my choice JAN. 7,8,9,10,11! Not really excited about the being induced, but very excited to know that he at least wont make me go to my due date and take the chance that he be bigger then Alana was! So that is good news! Other then that all is well. I have to get up to Winter park hospital to get registered in the next week or so, and he gave me a list of Pediatricians that will circumcise in the hospital <since apparently the new thing is to wait until they are 2 weeks old to do so!! UGH and we will be moving to GA> so I have to call them and get his set up with them as well!:) I cant believe I only have like 45 days left!!! AHHHH!

Next appointment - December 10th 2007
