Our newest addition to the family

Well as many of you know we are expecting again, our newest bundle of joy is due April 1st. Yes an April Fools Day baby, but both myself and my doctor believe that this baby will not be born on that day, but earlier..so let's hope that is so as my niece was born this past April Fools Day and we want that day to be special to her!

Currently we are 12 weeks and 5 days along, so almost out of the first trimester. It hasn't been too bad to me, the only complaint I have is at night I get super stuffy to where I can't breath. So I have to breath with my mouth open which makes my throat super dry!

Other than that all is well.

The first ultrasound we had was at 6 weeks 4 days, it doesn't look like much, but they were able to tell me all looked normal :)


Our 12 week appointment and first trimester screening was yesterday. So we got another ultrasound

Again all looks good

Baby is measuring at 13 weeks 1 day
heartbeat is 156
2 arms, 2 legs, spine, stomach, brain, heart, etc
all tests came back normal

We tried to do a 3D to see more of this little one, but they didn't turn out so good, too early for it. But here is a great profile of our little one..



The doctor that scanned us is positive (95% sure, would put money on it) that we are having a boy due to the shot below. The expert at ultrasounds said she would go more like 80% and not to be so sure yet....so who knows! I still believe I am having all boys



Our next appointment is at 16 weeks, not normally an ultrasound appointment, we will see what happens :)

I also thought I would throw in a picture of my ever growing self. It is amazing on your third pregnancy how your body just knows to stick right out there! I have only gained 4.5 lbs in the first 3 months and I am measuring at 13 weeks, so pretty right on!




I will keep the belly shots coming as we progress through :)
