Maternity Clothes?: Well my pants are getting pretty tight and uncomfortable, even the stretchy ones, but I haven't broke out the maternity clothes yet

Stretch Marks?: No

Feeling Sick?: Feeling much better this week. Still small indigestion (but rare). This week though I had horrible lower back pain. Not sure what it was from because its gone now. But that wasn't fun

Best Moment This Week: Going to my 2nd appointment. They tried to find the baby's heartbeat with the doppler and it took a very long time which freaked me out. But they finally found it and it was in the 150s...such a great sound. I asked why it took so long and they said usually at this stage its rare to find it on the doppler, but since Im on the skinny side they decided to try. The baby is only an inch long so there is a lot of room to look. Also, it was my 28th birthday this week. My mom came to help us start packing for our move and she of course spoiled me for my birthday

Food Cravings?: CAKE for my birthday, and my mom made a wonderful chocolate one that was amazing!

Gender?: Don't know, but thinking boy still

Labor Signs?: No

Belly Button In or Out?: In

Wedding Ring On or Off?:  On

What I Miss?: My energy. Now that Im feeling better, I just need energy and Ill be good to go

What I'm Looking Forward To?: Seeing the baby again on the ultrasound. With Jane we got to see her at the 1st and the 2nd appointment. This time I didn't so I was a little bummed out but I know every practice does things differently. 

Anything Else?: I had a great birthday. Im so glad I was starting to feel better for it. That would have been stinky if I was sick on my birthday.

Love
