Womb with a view

So I got my ultrasound today.. the baby was very, very uncooperative. And apparently breach.. But finally HE decided to show himself! For those of you who know what to look for, I've included a pic of the baby's face. For those of you with no idea what they're looking at, think of this as an inkblot test.. you get to see whatever you want.

Tomorrow.. tomorrow.. I'll love you tomorrow..

Ok so yes, I already love the baby.. but tomorrow is a special day! Tomorrow morning at 8 (waaaaaay too early btw) I will be at the hospital for the official 20 week ultrasound and by the end of the day I should be announcing the gender of the lil Lima Bean.

Lost weight and this is bad for once....

Ok so this is probably the only time in my life when I'll say this, but why in the world am I still not putting on weight. Not only am I not putting on weight but I seem to be losing weight! That can't be good for the baby. I've tried everything! I thought it was just cause of the morning sickness that I was losing weight, but I haven't had any in weeks and I now weigh 6 lbs less than I did before I got pregnant! I eat constantly! I don't get it! It's like all of a sudden I have Michele's metabolism or something! In a normal situation I'd be thrilled that I'm losing weight and not having to work at it, but with a baby now the size of my hand growing inside me, I'm more than a little worried about this..

My mum swears she sees a change in the prego belly. I still don't see it.

Oh... baby's awake!

In the last week it's gone from "every now and then I can feel the baby move" to "the baby keeps me up at night". Two nights ago just after everyone else fell asleep, I rolled over and then realized "oh the baby moved!" and then it moved again and again. I actually laid awake for a good 20 minutes just feeling the baby kicking. It was pretty amazing.

So I realized today that it's been almost a month since I've heard from the babydaddy. It's an odd mixture of feelings caught between relief at not having had to deal with him, hope of this lasting, and fear because I know eventually it will have to end and I'll have to deal with him. Part of me hopes he'll just let this go, but most of me knows that he won't. Asking for prayers for things to go smoothly with him when the time finally comes to talk again. One thing's for sure though, if he thinks he'll be anywhere near that delivery room when the baby comes, he is sadly mistaken.

On another note, I thought I'd post a pic of what little baby bump I've gotten.

Baby Morphings

So I found this website that allows me to morph pictures of the father with pictures of me to get an idea of what the baby might look like and since I'm an impatient person I went ahead and did it and thought I'd post the results..
