Slacker Update

Yes, I've been lax about posting again... sorry!  But, in my defense... I've been very busy!  Doing really fun stuff like sanding furniture, pouring over safety articles and registering for baby stuff!!  We found out almost 2 weeks ago that we are having a BOY!!!  We are so very excited & he's got the cutest profile...
This weeks marks 20 weeks pregnant... halfway!!  Next milestone is viability at 24 weeks... but we'll still shoot for 40 :).  Pregnancy is going well, was diagnosed w/ a partial placenta previa, but Dr. Shiny Head thinks it will move up as the baby gets bigger. Otherwise, just really tired & having some swelling in my feet and ankles at the end of the day, along with some pressure and stretchy feelings in my belly. I think the latter is due to Little Bean (BOY!) moving around and stretching out.  I feel very blessed.

The name game is still a go... Darling Hubby and I are at a disagreement about the names, but... we have time. I'd just like to be able to call him something!

In the meantime, continuing to round out, bump seems to be lower as baby comes up out of the pelvic area and the bloating in the upper belly goes down (finally).  Get another ultrasound at my next appointment in 2 weeks thanks to the low lying placenta... a blessing in disguise!  So happy to get another look at our son. So weird to say that... gotta get used to it! Son, son, son...
