I have officially left the morning sickness stage. Thank goodness for that. I am definitely feeling better this trimester. Lots more energy. I'm not really overly hungry which is good since I gained a little too much the first trimester. I have started showing and I'm officially in pregnancy clothes.
I went to the doctor on Monday and we listened to the heartbeat. It was 160 beats/min. Of course the bean was moving around so much it was hard to keep track of it. Like I said before it looks like we have a little Grant on our hands. Grant and I go back next Monday to hopefully find out the sex of the baby. I can't wait!
I felt the baby move a little bit the other day. It was just that little flutter. But I haven't felt anything since.
Our little friend Haven (Katy & Mike's son) has been thinking a lot about the baby. He decided one day that the baby was getting fed by eating my crumbs. When I told him about the "cord" that goes from the baby's belly button to me he thought that was gross, but the next time he brought it up he was talking about the cord that feeding the baby. Then He informed me that we were going to have to buy baby toys and that he would share some of his but he was going to be right there so when "she" (his choice of words) put the toy in "her" mouth he could snatch it right out. He has also decided that he is going to teach "her" to walk. When I said it might be a while before he could do that he said no, he would just teach "her" while I was out of the room and then I would come back in and she would be standing there. Sounds like he's going to be a very hands on "Big Brother." It's been very fun to share this experience with him.
I don't know what it is about being pregnant, but all of a sudden the kids that wouldn't give me the time of day are talking my ear off and wanting to spend all kinds of time with me. I can't say I mind. It's nice to be wanted! :)
Well, I guess that's about it for now. Hopefully I'll be posting again soon.
