Now at over 17 weeks pregnant, I am starting to feel positive. Who knows how things will turn out - but I know today I am pregnant, Sprout has been active lately, my BP is slightly on the rise- but not much right now - and my swelling is not too horrid. Hey, it's all a day by day thing right?!
I am going to order this baby book today

I love it and think it is so cute. I never started a baby book for Vincent - and I definitely want one for Sprout. Some of the questions may be hard - like what did mommy and daddy do to celebrate finding out mommy was pregnant?.... ummmm I don't feel like cry is an appropriate answer :) I'll have to fudge something!
We have our first fetal echo on Thursday at Boston Children's. It will be cool to see little Sprout's heart.
If my BP doesn't creep too high - listen to that BP & stop your rising ways! - I have my next MFM appt 11/23 after the "big" u/s. As for now, we are not going to find out the gender of Sprout at the big u/s. We are going to go to a private gender scan that way we can get a DVD and some cute recordings of Sprout. My hospital isn't big on cute pictures - they want healthy babies. I am O.K. with that - they are good at what they do - but I kinda want a cutsie u/s that points out foot and face and so on! :)
Now on a totally random note to end on - we have wild turkeys living in our backyard woods. Let me tell you how much the daschies just LOVE that :) I have to make sure there are no turkeys in sight when I let them out - the turkeys would definatley kick their butts!
