Updates

I had my check up on Friday afternoon. This time, they got me right in! I don't think we even waited 5 minutes, unlike last time or them forgetting about me! We got to hear the baby's heartbeat again, and this time it was easier to find. Last month, the dr had to push harder, and it hurt a little. This time, it was like he touched my belly and we heard it. We have 4 more weeks and we get to find out what we are having! I'm pretty excited. The receptionist tried to set me up for 5 weeks and I'm not waiting longer than I have to, so I asked to go in sooner. Apparently she didn't realize how far along I was because she tried to argue that the Dr likes us to be 20 weeks before he does the ultrasound. I nicely explained to her that I would be 20 weeks on May 3rd, and I didn't really want to wait until May 12th to find out. So the earliest I could get in was May 7th because the other days were all morning appointments and I work so I couldn't do those days. Josh insists we are having a boy. In the beginning, I thought I was having a girl, but then I started thinking that maybe I am having a boy. I honestly don't know for sure, though. I haven't had dreams about it like so many of my friends have had. Josh has started referring to the extra bedroom as the baby's room. I haven't gotten that far yet, because it's still technically a storage room. Hopefully when school gets out in about 6 more weeks, I can then turn it into a baby room. I have no idea how I want to decorate it, though. Any ideas? :)

Feeling Impatient & Contemplating Going Private

So I am feeling very impatient lately. I just want to find out what we are having so I can plan accordingly. Josh asked about how we would decorate the baby's room, and I have no idea how to do it until I know what we are having. I have a Dr appointment tomorrow (just a checkup) and then hopefully the next appointment we can find out. The Dr said that we would do the ultrasound at 20 weeks. I'm tempted to see if he would let us come in again in 3 weeks, when I am 19 1/2 weeks, instead of at 20 weeks to find out. We'll see, I guess.

So, I keep thinking that I may need to go private. Honestly, I don't know if there are people that I have no clue who they are who follow our blog, but in a way, that kind of worries me. I wish that there wasn't a need to go private, but the more I think about it, the more I think I just might need to do it. So, if anyone has any suggestions, or would like to help me come to a complete decision, I'm ready for them!

Sorry there are no pictures. Don't really have any to show at the moment. I haven't taken many pictures in awhile. :)
