Whoo! Offically in the 2nd trimester!
Last week our little munchkin was a PLUM this week baby has grown into a yummy fuzzy PEACH! Roughly 3.9inches long and weighing in at about .81-.93oz our little sweetie is growing like a weed already! This week Peach is working on his/her vocal cords, oh joy! Let the screaming and whinning begin, haha. The 'truck' of Peach is getting even more 'normal' and the head to body ratio is starting to even out a bit more. 1:2 < yeah not so alien/creature from the deep like. Ooo and the intestines that started growing in the umbilical cord, make their way into their offical home of his/her belly (:
Update on ME: I have been taking my new BP meds religiously and they helped...for a while. BP is starting to creep back up again, so my doctor decided I should see someone in cardio and see if maybe they have a better plan to keep me in a safer range. The side-effects of these meds are killer: constant headaches, dizzyness/light headedness, blurred vision ect ect. UGH!! What fun!
I also have been having really insane pains in my hips, pelvis and lower back. Normally I wouldn't think twice since I had these pains with Kaylee, but holy crapola! The last 3 nights it has been near unbarable, almost in tears kinda pain. Blek. Doc told me to wait a few more days and see in walking and pelvis 'rest' will help ease the pain a little. So we shall see what happens over the weekend and if it gets worse I will call back.
Ooo and in GOOD NEWS I found a fetal hb monitor used for a wonderfully low price of 40 bucks! This puppy is normally 125-150! I'd say I found a killer deal! Heck yes!
And in even BETTER NEWS we ARE in fact going to find out the sex of our little dumpling. Hubby decided he just couldn't wait! So I have been planning a Gender Reveal Partay for September! Only 5ish more weeks until we get too discover if daddy will be even more out numbered or not. (:
Kaylee still doesnt understand that she is going to be a BIG sister but she is now touching my tummy and asking to see the baby! (: My little smartie pants. I am seriously one lucky mommy to have such a wonderful and smart kiddo on my hands!
World meet my ever growing belly! I am getting B I G!
