Keep on ordering those ultrasounds Doc!!

Ok so yesterday we had my 5 month check-up plus the ultrasound that my Dr. had ordered because the one at Fetal Women's center one didn't give them a good look at the feet!! Well the "check-up" went well...haven't gained a whole mess of weight yet (THANK GOD!!!)!! I'm progressing nicely!! On to the ultrasound...AGAIN, they didn't get a good look at the feet because his legs were crossed!! He doesn't think there's anything wrong but would like to be sure in case we need to bring in a bone specialist at delivery!! The poor little guy looked squished (well you can't see in the profile pictures posted) in there because they made me go in with a FULL bladder (it was so full I had to empty it 3 times before we left the office)!! So because my Dr. didn't get a "great" look at the feet...they are AGAIN ordering ANOTHER ultrasound at my next appt. which will also be my glucose test time & my 6 month check-up (busy appt) but the nice thing is that they gave me my "sugar" drink (which is Fruit punch this time so maybe it won't be soooo bad) & told me I could refrigerate it so it may taste better!! I drink it right before I leave the house so I only have to wait 30 minutes after I get there to get my blood drawn!! AWESOME...I don't have to wait in the office for an hour after I drink it like I did with Taylor (they gave it to me when I went in...not to take home!!)!!!!
So back to the baby, the Dr. said he's in the 95 percentile which apparently means we have a "fat" baby!! Maybe he's just big like his daddy (not in the "fat" kinda way) or maybe I'm just feeding him well...LOL who knows?!??!!!! He's 1lb 12oz (I think...there was a lot of stuff going on in my head with the feet thing but I know for sure he's 1lb) which I guess is normal for 22 weeks so not sure why he says I have a "fat" baby??!! He says he's sticking with the 29th (which puts me at 21weeks 5 days today) because of some 7 day window but I'm sticking with the 24th (because he's big)!! I'm actually kinda stoked that my Dr. has ordered another ultrasound only because that means I get to see him AGAIN which I LOVE...so keep on ordering more!! LOL Plus I don't mind so much because I'll be far enough along where I don't have to drink a pint of water before I go in (just the nasty sugar drink...yuck)!! YAY!!!
Well that's really all for now...we still haven't gotten to painting the room yet so I have no pictures for you on that...I did organize the closet in there though!! I took pics of the last package Jeremy's mom sent (it came after I posted the last blog later that day) & some pictures of some stuff Jeremy & I bought!! PLUS, OF COURSE, MORE PICUTRES OF THE BABY (sorry the pics are grainy...it's the Dr.'s office...the other place had better pics but they probably have better machines also!)!!!! ENJOY!!!

P.S. I hope to have a name to announce soon...but Jeremy's still dragging his feet!! Someone (besides me) NEEDS to get on him!! LOL ;-)



Profile at 22 week


The last of the packages from
Jeremy's mom & the bear I looked everywhere to have!!! (it was on
the Target registry but it was on clearance online & out of stock in the stores)


















Jeremy & I got these at Babies R Us! The 2 blankets were on our registry
(the receiving blankets we wanted 2 of so you can still buy one more) ;]
&& the onesie was just because it was for "Daddy"!!!




































Jeremy loved these bibs & even though they were on the registry...he had to get them because they were limited quantities!!
