Halfway Baby!


So, we are officially halfway through this pregnancy and I can't beleive it! It seems like just yesterday I was telling Justin that he was going to be a father, but then I realize that was really 16 weeks ago. So far I've lost about 19 or 20 lbs. and began to put it on again around week 16. I've gone up about 5 overall but you can really start to see my bump.


Justin and I are really excited because on Wednesday we get to do our first ultrasound. We finally get to find out if we're having a Lulu or Mich. (Or as I tell Justin, twins! lol) And you know what? Even as much as I want to find out on Wed (and believe me I do!) I'm excited because we should at least be able to finally have a pic of our Lil One.


I went to my appointment two weeks ago. I was suppose to have one the week before but the dr. ended up having to deliver 5 babies in 36 hrs. so yeah, that wasn't happening lol. So I went to see Jodie again. This time my mom was able to go with me and you could see her face light up when she was able to hear the sound of the baby heartbeat. I was told that at 19 weeks I was measuring at more of 21 or 22 weeks. After that we were able to set up the u/s for Wed (the 8th) and we have another for the 21st of Sept with Dr. Roberts.


Justin has been such a wonderful husband/father so far. Everyone asks if he's excited and I say yeah but it's also weird for him because I had lost weight and wasn't looking any different. Now though I can see him changing. He loves the new bump I'm sporting and rubs my belly everynight before we fall asleep. The other day he even had his ear to my belly just talking to the baby. I'm blessed to have him as the father of our jellybean.


Anyway, I know I'm a lil behind on posting on here but I wanted to write and explain what's going on with the halfway point of my pregnancy. And you can believe that I'm going to write and post pics after our appointment on Wed.
