Turnip meets sweet potato

I think I've figured out the discrepancy - one site tells you the size at the beginning of the week and the other is giving you the end of the week. So I'm guessing that as of today I have a little blue turnip buy the magic of 7 days will reveal a lovely blue sweet potato. In any case it's 17 weeks and 1 day today, and time is moving quickly. I can't really believe that by the time it's Christmas I will be half way. Half way seemed like it took forever last time, but then everything seemed to take forever then when it was all I had to think about!

It's a boy!

I can't really believe it, but it's definitely a boy! Unfortunately I have an anterior placenta so we won't be getting too many great pictures of this one, but he is healthy and happy so far.

Turnip meets avocado?!

This week Babycenter.com says apple and Whattoexpect.com says turnip. In any case, in about 12 hours we should know if it's a pink apple turnip or a blue one...stay tuned...

16 week appointment with my new ob

I met my new ob today for my 16 week appointment. No problems, nice heartbeat, another blood test of course. But they said I have to go an 'OB class', before my next appointment. I have absolutely no clue what kind of a class this is or why I have to go! And it's just me, not John. So bizarre! And they didn't do an ultrasound today so no gender yet. I'm planning to book a private one today so hopefully it's not still too early!

Test results are in and all is well!

I got my test results back today, and I am very happy to announce that everything is A-OK and the baby is fine. What a hard two weeks this has
been, I would not wish this on anyone.

Now I can get down to the real business of being pregnant, which means announcements on Facebook, booking a gender scan and eating all the Dairy Milk I can lay my hands on!

All the As?!

This week it's BabyCenter apple vs Whattoexpect.com avocado. Bizarre!

No test results yet, it may actually be today but most likely mid-next week.

In the meantime morning sickness is back and kicking my butt, and I'm back to falling asleep at 9pm despite the 15 minute lie-in I have managed to add by making my lunch the night before. Oh man!

Keeping it citrus

So Babycenter says lemon and Whattoexpect.com says navel orange. Well at least they are in the same family of fruits this week!

This has been a pretty tough week, waiting for test results that I don't really want to hear. So I'm keeping blog updated to a minimum until I know what's going on. In the meantime enjoy the vitamin c!
