4 Weeks to 5 Months

Okay so here we go in point form just so it doesn't drag on and bore us all to death:)

-May 2, 2008 we find out we are pregnant!!!

-We bought our nursery furniture in the first couple weeks of finding out we were pregnant. Did some finishing after a trip to IKEA and Along Comes A Baby. Now we have to decorate.

-June 6, 2008 had our 8 week ultrasound, baby looks like a peanut and angel has been calling the baby Peanut ever since. Got to see the heartbeat 174BPM

-First 3 months went well, little nauseous, constipated, very tired but loved every minute of it. All appointments have gone well. Did have some toothache pain on and off and a couple of light spotting incidents but all was good.

- July 3, 2008 heard the heartbeat for the first time!! Such an amazing sound Angel recorded it on his phone so we can hear it everyday:)

- July 8 & 9 2008 We decided to do the nursery in baby Looney Tunes so we went to Babies R Us and Toys R Us and were able to get a few pieces really cheap as the line has been discontinued. We ordered a few other things on line. Put up the decals and just waiting for the border.

-July 10 border came and so we put it up and it looks awesome!! So Excited!

-In month 4 I bought a couple pairs of Maternity pants, have lots of shirts that work for maternity and I love Maternity pants so so comfortable:)

-July 31, 2008 Had monthly doctor's apt. everything is good. Fundal Height 16.6cm, heard the heartbeat again although baby wasn't cooperating. Doctor had a hard time finding it and said, "your kids is pissing me off" too funny:)

-August 14, 2008 Had our 19 week Ultrasound today, saw baby she/he looks so beautiful!! Baby was looking right at us and looked like she/he was dancing around. Everything looked good but it was a little early and that combined with my extra weight meant they didn't get the measurements they needed and it was hard to tell if we are having a boy or a girl:( We get to go back though and have another ultrasound so I am excited about that.

- August 20, 2008 Bad scare. Felt alot of pain and pressure in pelvic area and so went to ER and they thought it was bladder infection. I had no contractions, checked baby's heartbeat and it was good 124bpm, sent me home, found out later no infection but pain seemed to subside.

- August 28, 2008 Saw Doctor again today He checked me out due to still having pelvic pain, says my pelvic bone is separating a little bit and everything else I am feeling is completely normal. Fundal Height is 23cm and baby's heartbeat was easier to find this time and was 140BPM. He said Ultrasound results were all good and he will send us back at 26 weeks for next one.

So all in all these first 20 weeks have been great, i don't mind the sickness, constipation and tired thing. I don't mind the pelvic pain I am just loving being pregnant and so excited to have this baby. God is awesome and he has blessed us so amazingly!! We are looking forward to the next few months and then finally the arrival of our little one.
