19 1/2 Weeks

So this pregnancy is moving right along...almost half way!!! :) I had a check up today and things look great. I gained 4 pounds since my last appointment and measuring right how I should be. My blood pressure is great, 100/78, and hoping that this continues all throughout this pregnancy and I have no issue like last time. I asked the doctor today about that and he said probably about a 20% chance that I could develop those pre-eclampsoa issues again. Hoping that I am in that 80% because I would love to try a pregnancy without feeling like Violet Beauregard....can you tel we have been watching a lot of Willy Wonka lately?

And my ultrasound is scheduled...yeah!!! We go on March 31st and hopefully will be able to find out if "little noodle" is a boy or a girl:) I know we have a while left, but we are getting antsy and I was hoping to be able to get the closet in the baby's room ready over spring break. If it turns out that baby #2 is a boy, then I have many bins to go through and pass on to all my friends. Guess we just have to wait and see....

For all the guessers, you have about 4 weeks left to cast your vote. Baby's heartbeat today was 152 if that helps....a little lower each time. We hae also started TRYING to look at names. It is proving to be a little harder this time. (And I wil try to post some pictures this weekend.)
