Awww...love those ultrasound pics Floridasian!! I was looking back at my early ones the other day. It's so funny that he isn't even here yet and I'm already feeling nostalgic looking back at pics of him when he was tiny. Ultrasounds are really probably one of the best parts of being pregnant for me! And you get them so often early on...later not as much unless you're having issues. It's just so incredible to have visual proof that all the discomfort and weird things happening in your body are really making this little person (or people!) develop. That sounds strange to say...like you obviously know it's happening, but there's just something about seeing a bean, then an alien, then a scraggly thing, then finally something that looks like a real baby with a face where you can tell its little expressions. That's great that you didn't end up having to do IUI or IVF to get your BFP. I know you've been through the ringer, and I will just keep praying for a good 9 months for you. It's exciting that you've made it further than ever before, and I am super optimistic for you! Oh, and yes! I found out super early....what can I say? I guess my boy's just well hung! LOL I mean I guess it could have been wrong...they weren't saying "for sure" but when those gender guessing wizards in the forums had no doubt, I figured it was definitely the case!
Jen, you poor thing! I almost feel bad when you talk about how much you've gone through because I feel like I've had it pretty easy! I didn't get MS at all and have just started getting heartburn and acid reflux in the last couple of months. I am having to take iron too, but I have been kind of bad about it (just taking it every other day) because I'm so scared of getting more constipated than I already am. Has the colace/miralax combo been doing it for you? I was really hoping to poop this morning before my doctor's appt at 10:15, but no such luck! I took colace, ate prunes last night and drank coffee this morning. Haha! I feel like I would have seriously weighed at least a pound less LOL. But she didn't get onto me about weight gain, so I guess everything's fine. I know what you mean about feeling huge...but you are about to see how big you can get! People tell me the same thing. But about where you are is when my belly really started expanding. My stomach and other organs misses their space.
You guys talking about your nurseries...I finally got my last major piece of furniture today. I've had the crib for a while and have been accumulating other equipment and furnishings. But the centerpiece of the room is the swivel rocker/ottoman, and Pottery Barn finally delivered today! Yay!! My nursery is a little unusual because it's actually a library/office room. All of our other bedrooms are upstairs, so this is the only room that is next to the master. It has floor to ceiling built in bookshelves, a fireplace and a door to a little outside courtyard. Definitely not a traditional nursery setup, but we're making it work. The walls (whatever's not covered in shelves) are black and white diamond pattern. I was going to paint it over, but everyone who sees it loves it, and I've heard that black and white geometric patterns are great for baby's development. So I think I'll leave it. Other than that mostly using gray/white/light blue colors. Wanting to keep it pretty gender neutral so I won't have to change much in case I get a baby girl next.
The most weird thing I've witnessed since having a boy... Little baby boners... Yes, yes they get boners even this early on. It scared the crap out of me the first time I saw it!
