In case you haven't heard yet... we are having a baby!! I am 21 weeks pregnant (which works out to be almost 5 months pregnant). Our due date is June 2!! Yeaaaaah!!! We went for our first ultrasound on December 21 and everything looked great. The baby even waved at us!! - that was really neat. We go for a second ultrasound next month so that we can get more accurate measurements. I feel like the baby is growing rapidly - especially in the past month. I have got a belly now!!! ahhhhh. I am also feeling lots of movement which makes it feel very real. I can't believe how much the baby is moving already.
We aren't sure whether its a girl or boy. James really wanted to find out however in parts of British Columbia, the ultrasound tech is not allowed to tell the patients because there have been many cases where when people found out they were having a girl, they would abort!! Its sooooo sad that people could be so horrible, but now we have to deal with the consequences. We are okay just knowing that our baby is healthy though.
Ever since November I have been having really bad back pain. The doc thinks its my psiatic nerve. I've been going to physio but I'm still in a lot of pain. After my recent doctor's appt. my doc has put me on medical leave and told me not to work until after the pregnancy. So I am officially a housewife right now!! Which means....
I am looking for visitors!!! (and a personal masseuse). Come one, come all!!!
I'll take a photo soon so you can see my belly/baby grow!! hehe
Keep in touch!
Andrea
