Yesterday I went to my OB for my 13 weeks prenatal checkup. Everything went really well, I gained six pounds in 3 weeks. Um hopefully that pattern doesnt continue ;) I think at least three of those pounds are in my boobs LOL I am already up a full cup size. I got all the results from my lovely tests back and they all came back normal.
We heard the heartbeat with the doppler for the first time so that was reassuring. 166 bpm, so nice and strong and still sounding like the little girl that I think she is. hehe.
Based on my ultrasound she pushed ahead my due date by one whole day, so now the due date I have is October 11. Which is a Saturday, and so far both my other kids were due on a Saturday and born on a Saturday, Taty was born on her due date and Juancito was born exactly a week before his due date. So I think thats interesting...
I'm feeling pretty good at this point. Just really really TIRED. No matter what I do I am always exhausted, I have no energy for anything. My boobs got freaking big and they are starting to hurt again so I'm not sure what that means, hopefully not that they are growing again. I'm also ALWAYS hungry. I just cant seem to fill myself. I'll eat a whole meal and in 10 minutes I feel like I never even ate. Its frusterating LOL.
Me and Juan are disagreeing on one thing. The baby's sex. I completely feel like this is a girl, and have felt that way since I found out I was pregnant. He is convinced it's a boy (wishful thinking? hehe) He says there is too much estrogen in the house. I do agree, having 3 teenage girls is not going to be fun but um, sorry buddy, I think its a girl. But in about 2 months we should know for sure...
it's always so great to hear the heartbeat for the first time. I am excited for you! I always knew what the sex of my babies were, from the moment i knew I was pregnant. I would have to go with you on this and say girl!
