19 weeks

Hello! Still feeling pretty normal, yay! Bought some more new clothes for the growing bump. Not maternity clothes, just regular clothes in bigger sizes. Love people telling me how small I look. Yes, I am in De-ni-al.

CRAZY busy at work these few weeks. Sucks. One of the speechies quit a few weeks ago, and guess who ended up with lots of her kids?! We've hired someone who is very nice and awesome, however since she's still new and training.. looks like I still have busy busy May ahead. And then it'll be summer, which will be just as crazy. Fun times. On the bright side, work has been much happier since some XXX people left the company. :)

Hubby and I went to Red Wing last weekend, just to chill out, rest, and relax. Left the puppy at the dog hotel for two days, where he had the time of his life and could barely move for 3 whole days after. He is still sleeping like a good dog now. :) Totally worth the $80 right.

Have to renew my green card soon. Can you believe I've been a PR here for almost TWO YEARS? Time flies.

Oh, and Troy got a new job, yay! Better pay, and more flexible hours. Planning ahead for when Baby G gets here. Speaking of which, I finally get to find out if its a boy or girl in..  10 days!!!

Going to big baby sale today. Hoping to pick up some good deals, we'll see. Have hardly bought anything so far. Like I said, still in denial.

15 weeks

Hey, almost half way there!

Had my 2nd OB appointment today. Nothing much to report. She felt my belly, we heard the heartbeat, answered one question, drew blood for the quad screen. Whole appointment took about.. um, 15 minutes, which I'm sure I'll get charged $250 for. Thankfully my insurance has been covering everything 100% so far, and I have yet to fork out a penny. Yay for health insurance!

I've been feeling pretty ok. Some discomfort at night, cramping every now and then. I've put on 8 lbs (!!) so far, but OB still says I'm tiny. Everyone at work still tell me I'm not showing but I feel sooooooo fat. Oh well at least the baby won't have low birth weight, which recent research shows is linked to Autism. There is NO END to the things I have to worry about in pregnancy. :(
