Here is the belly as of Friday (19w5d). Something is certain;y growing in there!!
Everything seems to be going great. I'm getting some pelvic aches and pains, which are totally normal, the trick is trying to figure out how to manage them. Nothing unbearable yet, and I hope it doesn't get that way.
As far as baby goes, the munchkin is weighing in at about 10.5 ounces, and 6.5 inches long...a cantaloupe! Tastebuds are developing so whatever I eat they can now taste through the amniotic fluid. Hearing is intact, so Kevin has been playing the Star Wars soundtrack for my belly and telling baby that Episodes 1-3 do not exist.
The big ultrasound is on Friday, so I'll have an exciting announcement after that!! Any guesses? I have a poll going at work, things are about even right now.
Other exciting news is that an OLD friend of mine that thanks to Facebook I've stayed in contact with recently offered up some of her baby stuff that she didn't need anymore, since her little girl is 3 and a half now. So yesterday Kevin and I drove down to Costa Mesa and picked up a TON of awesome stuff.
We got a glider, a bathtub, bath seat, high chair, two different activity tables, some pregnancy books, baby books, toys...just a ton of awesomely helpful things. I am so excited and thankful!!
That's it for today. More exciting stuff coming up soon!
