6 months

Okay! It is now 6 months into the pregnancy! Starting to really show and not look "fat". My clients at work now ask me how far along I am without questioning if I am prego or just fat. lol
In the last month I...


1. have gone through 1 gallon of milk a week (I don't normally like to drink very much milk)
2. Have had a harder time sleeping
3. started to nest, Michael loves this one. He comes home and I am either baking or cleaning. I don't normally do the cleaning part. But the house is the cleanest it has ever been! I redid our house-rearranged the bedroom to fit the bassinet and baby stuff in it. I clean our closet and organized it. Totally cleaned the kitchen from top to bottom, and did all the Christmas decorating, shopping, wrapping, and other stuff to do with Christmas, went threw some storage stuff and reorganized that and donated stuff to the church and lots of other things.
4. have had horrible acid reflex. Yucky!
5. feel like I am carrying weights on my back and tummy!
6. have avoided stretch marks still! WOOHOO!!!!!!

It's a.......

Baby foot!

Can't really see it but IT'S A BOY!!!!!!!!!

Yep that is right it is a BOY!!!!! We Can't be more excited. We are the first to carry out the Vatcher name! He looks healthy and has a very healthy heart rate. He was a little shy showing off his parts, but then gave us a quick peek. I told him I couldn't stand to wait any longer so he needed to show us now.

As for Mom.....Well, I am on Bed rest for the next 2 days or so. Yesterday, I started getting a really sharp pain on the right side of my back. The doctor thinks it might just be a sciatic nerve, but also do to my scoliosis. he says I am just really small and that I just might have problems with my back the whole time. So, for right now I am on Vicadin and bedrest! Joy! I can't walk, stand, sit or move my right leg without being in soooooo much pain.

I did have my husband give me a Priesthood blessing, so let the blessings begin. :) Well, enjoy the pictures. It looks like we have a beautiful baby coming. (how can we not) LOL

Unopenable gift!

My Husband can tell you that when it comes to gifts, I am soooooooo bad at waiting to find out what is inside. I just have to find out! Well, my pregnancy right now is like that gift! Only this time I can not convince them to let me open it early! All this time I thought that tomorrow would be the day I would get to open it to just see what was inside (boy or girl) and much to my dismay, the doctors tells me I have to wait til I am 20 weeks! WHAT!!!!!!????????????? How can you make me wait that long when I know for certain you could tell now if it is a boy or girl! Are you Seriously doing this just to test my patience? Or just to irritate me to death!
Don't get me wrong! I am very excited for tomorrows appointment. I will be able to hear my babies heartbeat and find out what day I can pick into my gift! BUT.....this whole time I was under the empression I would be finding out tomorrow morning and now I am not. Kiaser SUCKS!!!

Anyways, just venting! Sunday, October 4, marked 16 weeks, or 4 months for me! I am so excited!
So far:

• I have only gained 3 pounds so far
• only feel nauseous when I need food,
  
• I really don't want to eat food still at this point, but still do,
  
• still have to eat first thing in the morning.
  
• Brushing my tongue, when brushing my teeth, makes me throw up
• I can't do Taco Bell anymore or I get sick
• love spicy food
• get acid reflex when I do eat spicy food
• am finally to the point that I don't think I will be wearing heals to work on my 8-9 hour days
• sleep really well until about 4 am then I can't sleep at all until about 10 minutes before my alarm goes off.
• am starting to show just a little bit! ( I can't fit into my regular work pants)
  

Well I think that is it so far! Really I think this pregnancy has been super easy so far. I am loving every bit of it!

Pregnancy= longer hair faster!

I have officially reached 3 months! I truly can't believe how fast the time is going.

In the past 3 months I...

Have had NO appetite.

Have to eat first thing in the morning when I wake up or I hug the toilet.

Started to drink a lot more water then I normally do.

Out grow a few of my nicer work pants and had to buy a pant extender lol.

Not gained any weight, maybe just 1 pound but that is all.

Had just a little bit of morning sickness my 2nd month.
