It's time for me to just come out and say it.. I'm growing fat! Okay, okay as my husband would say; " You're not fat, you're just pregnant!" Yes it is true I am! Clint and I are expecting our first, but number 4 to the family and once again it's a little boy. I guess I'm getting a taste of what my dad's life was like being surrounded by all girls... but I'm with all boys.
I have a blood condition (thanks ;) mom!) that puts me and the baby at a higher risk than most. Therefore my doctor has been monitoring me a little more closely than she normally would. So yesterday we went in for an ultra sound and we knew it was still early on and there was a chance we wouldn't be able to see what it was, but of course we got lucky! I am only a little over 14 weeks and they usually wait until around 15-20 weeks so they can make sure it's a boy or girl, however this little boy wanted us to know. It was perfectly clear it was a boy, and I guess he's not so little when we had our first ultra sound he was measuring about a week larger than what really was possible.
I've had far more than my share of morning sickness it feels like, and mine last all day EVERY day. I know everyone is different but man it was horrible while it lasted. I still get sick from time to time but nothing like it was for the first 12 weeks. As our little one grows and comes into this world we look forward to having him in our family.
