16 weeks

We have movement! I can officially feel the baby moving around. It's not really strong yet and it's not a whole lot but at night when I'm laying down I can feel him wiggling around. I'm so excited to be able to feel this little guy moving around, I told Roland and now he can't wait until he can feel our little guy to. It's so strange to think that we are going to have a little boy, I'm not sure I'll believe it until I'm holding him in my arms.
 The migraines are finally starting to ease up a little bit and so it the morning sickness, which is such a relief. I'm also starting to slowly get a little more energry back as well, which the girls are loving because mommy actually feels like playing.

It's a.....

Today we went and had an ultrasound done to find out if we are having a girl or a boy. Now that we know what we are having we would like to share it with all of you as well.

That is right we are pleased to say we will be having a boy! Roland was nothing but smiles when she told us and I'm over the moon.

You can see the little guys goods!

As we said before we won't be sharing this little guys name until we have him.



15 Weeks

Today I'm 15 weeks pregnant and according to babycenter.com our baby is about the size of an apple. It's kind of funny to think of your baby as the size of an apple, lol. In the last week I have had a few days of no morning sickness and then it came back all at once. The migraines haven't really been getting any better so I hope that will ease up very soon.

I had a dr's appointment on Monday for baby and me. First she tried to find baby's heartbeat with the doppler and after a minute she wasn't able to, of course this put me a bit on edge. She decided to do a quick ultrasound, she then found baby moving all around and a nice strong and steady heartbeat. Roland was very happy that he was able to see the baby for the first time as well, he just had the biggest grin plastered to his face. We were hoping she might be able to tell us what we were having but that didn't happen. We are going on Saturday afternoon to a place in town to find out what we are having and get a few good pictures of our new little one. Everything else with baby and me is going well, I have lost about 7lbs since my first dr's appt. My goal is to try not to gain any weight this pregnancy so I don't have to add to the already huge amount that I need to lose after.

14 weeks

Thursday I hit my 14 week mark, and offically I am in my 2nd trimester! I'm so glad to be in the 2nd trimester and I'm so hoping that very soon all the nausea will go away and the migraines won't be as bad. On monday I have my first doctors appointment here in Cali for this little one. I can't wait to hear it's little heartbeat again and if they do an ultrasound I'm hoping they can tell me what we are having! If they don't do an ultrasound we will be going to a place out in town to get one done to find out the sex of the baby. I don't want to wait any longer then I have to to find out what this new little one is. I'm so hoping for a boy mostly because we don't have one and it would be a nice change for us. Of course if God blesses us with another girl I will be just as thrilled and not have to buy anything new!

End of the 1st trimester

It's the last week of my 1st trimester, all I can say is thank goodness. I can only hope that as this trimester comes to an end so does all my morning sickness and migraines. I just want to feel half normal again and have the energy to get up and do things.

I have my first doctor's appointment here in Cali on the 16th, there is a chance that they will do an ultrasound. If they do we're hoping to find out what we are having, if they don't do one Roland and I are going to go out in town and find out. We are not sure at this time if we are going to share with other what we are having. I think it would be great to have a boy of course since we don't have one but if we are having another girl that will be awesome as well.
