17 Weeks

LBD and I are at 17 weeks with only one more week until we find out what gender the baby is! LBD is now the size of an onion with a hardening skeleton and finger and toe prints!

I'm definitely showing now:

16 Weeks

LBD and I have officially hit four months today! He's getting bigger everyday and is currently about the size of an avocado! His ears are forming and so he will be able to hear my voice. His taste buds are also forming as well as his eyebrows, lashes, and hair coming in more! I'm so excited for our appointment in two weeks so we can officially determine the gender! I want to start being able to buy baby clothes and do DIY projects for the (future) nursery! (I'm really excited to use wooden letters to spell out the baby's name. I'm going to paint them and decorate them!)

Matt and I are going to take pictures this Saturday since it gets dark before we get home, so I'll post them here once we've got them!

Update: Pictures we took Saturday!

15 Weeks

This week has been a little nerve-wracking with LBD. I had two days when I woke up with heavy bleeding, but no pain, no clots, and nothing else out of the ordinary. I called the doctor both times and they said that if it continued throughout the day to come in. Both times it stopped and I was fine, so I never went into the doctor. Matt and I were very nervous about it, but we haven't had anything happen since so we're keeping calm. And now that my belly is actually starting to show, I'm even less worried. It's weird feeling the my stomach and abdomen getting harder from LBD, but I like knowing that he's growing and healthy in his waterbed.

LBD is now the size of an orange with working joints in his arms and legs. He's moving around a lot, which I saw on my ultrasound last week, but he's still small enough that I can't feel anything.

Little Bump

After looking at my 12 week pictures and this past weekend, I have definitely started showing a little baby bump. My pants are starting to feel tight and so I've decided to start shopping for maternity clothes. I actually bought my first maternity sweater from Old Navy that came in the mail Saturday!
