It's a GIRL!!!

It has officially been confirmed, IT'S A GIRL!!!!! We are finally 100% that it we will soon have a baby girl! Her name will be Addison. She currently weighs 10 ounces and is facing feet down. She is measuring 19 weeks and will still be due on Feb. 23, 2010 even though we are 5 days ahead of schedule.

They did a complete anatomy scan and she looks great! The only thing they found that we will have to pay close attention to is the placement of the placenta. It is what they call a low line placenta. The placenta should be up top, but mine is low and covering part of my cervix. The Dr said 90% of the time it will move up on its own, if not then I will have to have a c section. They will do another sono towards the end to see if it moved on its own. My blood pressure was actually lower than it has been!! Hooray hopefully it stays that way.

I can not believe how much my tummy has finally popped out, and the scale yesterday definatley proved it. 7 pounds in ONE month!!!!! Wow!!! The Dr said that it is fine that I'm pregnant and thats what happens. I'm glad she wasn't freaking out because I sure was. I guess it all just suddenly came on, because before yesterday I had only gained 1 pound.

I also got to finally meet my new Dr yesterday! Her name is Dr. Stephanie Shisler. She says just call her Dr. Steph. She was awesome!!! So layed back and down to earth. What a relief!!

I will post sono pictures from yesterday in the next few days!! My next appt. is Oct 21st. Hopefully I will get to really feel some first kicks or movement soon and I will also post that! I can't wait!!! I LOVE being pregnant!!!

26 more hours!!

26 more hours, but whose counting??? I have my dr. appt tomorrow and we will finally get to confirm the sex of the baby!!! I can hardly wait. I'm sorry I haven't posted much lately, but not too much is going on until this last week. This past week my stomach has really started to poke out. I'm finally starting to look pregnant!! I'm feeling good and just trying to enjoy every moment of this pregnancy!



I am so excited about being a mommy. I never realized how much love you can have for a child that you haven't even seen and doesn't even have a name yet. It's truly AMAZING!!! I just can't even imagine what it will be like when I finally meet her! I can hardly wait for that moment! I just hope that I will be just as good of a Mom as my Mom was to me. I feel so fortunate to be blessed with such an awesome Mom and hope that I can do the same for Addison ( or Bryce). Okay enough of that, oh and by the way have I told you how emotional I have been lately!! Haha!! Can ya tell?? Anyways, I will update you all after tomorrow's appointment!!!
