16 weeks 4 days
Took this picture last night. I think I'm finally past the "is she just gaining weight?" stage. :) I looked at some pictures of when I was pregnant with Addie and I don't think I looked this big till about 22 weeks! Yikes! Crazy how much quicker the baby pops out the second time around.
Just so everyone knows, I decided not to go get the heart ultrasound and heart monitor today. I haven't had any episodes since I've been done with Lent/Easter stuff and since I've gotten back from my vacation. I think that these heart things, along with my high blood pressure (at least at this early point in the pregnancy) is stress related. It's not that I'm stressed out or was stressed out, but just that I had a lot of stuff going on. Stress isn't always a bad thing either! Probably just not a lot of stress. I did some praying and I just thought that going in to get an ultrasound and heart monitor would be a waste. So, hopefully these heart things stay to a minimum for the rest of the pregnancy and my blood pressure stays relatively low.
On another note, we got to go see our friends Matt and Amanda's new baby boy, Calahan, on Saturday at the hospital. We forgot to bring our camera so we didn't get any pictures but maybe I'll take my camera over the next time we see them and get some pictures. Congrats and blessings, Matt and Amanda!

Hmmm...looks like a boy to me..:) Maybe the size that Joel was...I told him not to do that to my daughter! hahaha
BTW...naughty about not going back to the heart doc...that's not something you disregard. We just had a nursing assistant who lost her baby at 6 months into her pregnancy because of heart/blood pressure issues. If the heart stuff returns you better get back in there...and I mean it...
