Just 16 Weeks To Go!

It has been a while since I last posted, mostly because very little has changed in the past few weeks... except for my belly, that is! I've posted an updated picture below. Otherwise, I'm at the best stage of pregnancy. I'm feeling great other than a few lower back aches and pains. I'll take that over nauseous and sleepy any day! My last doctor's check-up was a couple of weeks ago. He was concerned that I'm measuring small and not gaining enough weight, so I have to go in for another sonogram on March 31. At first I was concerned, but I started really packing it on right after that doctor's visit. The good news is that I will get to see another picture of the baby!






We have been "hard at work" picking things for the nursery and starting registries. I use quotes, because it's actually been a lot of fun. Seeing all of the adorable baby things make me really anxious for the big day, though. We have picked bedding that is a jungle animal theme. The colors are mostly green and brown. I fell in love with it because of the cute monkeys!

  1. I measured small intially. I didn't really gain any weight until after 20 weeks. Then I gained 40 and am still working on getting the last 9 off...ugh. I'm sure your appt will be fine. Take care and enjoy the registering. Get a bouncy chair that vibrates. I couldn't live withou Lena Kate's. They are great for newborns and last awhile.

  2. Elaine, if you have any specific recommendations of brands or models of bouncy chairs, let me know! Sorting through all of the baby stuff is overwhelming.

  3. Your little baby belly is so cute. I measured small the entire time and they even induced labor at 37 weeks because Alex was small. I don't think those measurements are very accurate. I love the safari bedding. I know you didn't ask me, but we had the fisher price rainforest bouncer chair and Alex loved that thing. Just make sure whatever you get has a vibrate. That thing works wonders.
