After my last post and doc appointment I checked with a few people here form Miramichi (actually nurses from the hospital that I know) to see how this all worked - ultrasound etc.. From what they tell me, after my results of next weeks' ultrasound gets in the computer system, I should get a call from the sonographer on Maternity and she will get me to come in to go over prenatal classes, breastfeeding clinics, another ultrasound, and my glucose testing. This should be 2-3 weeks after my first ultrasound. So this makes me a bit happier, knowing that we may know by the end of the month, and before my shower. Mainly I want to know so we can get the painting done before it's too cold. If we don't get our appointment before the end of October we may go ahead and paint anyway. Something neutral. We've actually found a color, kind of goes with one color on the comforter set we want.
Still haven't felt much movement baby wise. I'm hoping it'll 'kick' in soon! haha! Just to let me know the little bugger is doing ok! We still play music almost every night for him/her. I may start with some more upbeat music during the day to see if I get any reaction.
Other than that, I still haven't been sleeping the best. I need to find a good body pillow. I can't seem to find one that's not so soft!
Big Congratulations to Julie and Gerry on their little one, born October 2 - Cassandra was born at 12:13 am on Oct. 2 weighing 7lbs 11 onces, 20 inches long. Here is a pic of her. (Hope you don't mind that I posted a pic Julie and Gerry)
Wes has just finished up his 2nd week of school and is moving right along!! He's doing awesome! I'm soo proud of him!!! He's already completed 2 courses to date and may finish another one today. So far his marks have been a 94% and a 95%.
I took a pic of myself to show my progress. Of course, being overweight I won't get the nice perfect belly that most smaller women do. I started out with somewhat of a belly to begin with but it is increasing, when I used to look down between my boobs, I didn't see belly, now I do! And to boot, I'm still down 1 lbs. I lost 4 to being with and have only put 3 back. Here is my pic at 18 weeks.
One last note, Happy Thanksgiving to all!! Hope you have a great long weekend!

Many women do not feel noticable kicks until like 22 weeks in some pregnancies so I wouldnt worry about that.
