IT'S A BOY!!

Well, we are having a boy.  We had the sonogram yesterday.  I was so excited about finding out the gender I didn't realize how much stuff they look at and measure doing those things.  We were looking at him for an hour, while the tech was pointing things out and measuring his head, his legs, his arms, looking at his hands, his feet, his brain, his heart, his spine.  We looked at his stomach, his kidneys, his bladder, his eye sockets.  It was amazing.

That little guy is moving like crazy.  Sharon couldn't believe that I can't feel any of his movements yet.  He was a maniac.  On his back, on his front, sideways, moving his legs, kicking, waving, it looked like he was chewing gum too.  The tech was awesome, she took so many pictures, we have hand pics, feet pics, profiles, and yep even one of his privates (with an arrow)!! 

The doctor came in and said everything looks normal and they moved my due date up to July 9th.  So hey, maybe it really will be a Cancer baby!!

Nightmares

I have had several nightmares recently.  The major scary one was when I killed two people (husband and wife).  I didn't know who they were at first.  I killed them with a lava lamp.  I tried to make it look like the husband killed the wife, the police bought it at first.  Then they saw me kick the wife in the head.  I woke up in the middle of the night, tried to get the dream out of my head and was unsuccessful.  Later that night, I dreamed that the husband and wife were swimming in the ocean-ALIVE and that the wife was my good friend.  Pretty freaky dream.

I also had a dream that a Venezuelan boy was shooting darts at my face.  My most recent dream I was smoking cigarattes while pregnant.  Sharon and Angie were telling me I shouldn't be smoking and I told them I didn't care that it wouldn't harm the baby.

Fortunately I recently read that many pregnant women have nightmares and they should go away after giving birth.  In the meantime, I've decided not to watch any Law and Order shows (my favorite) or read any thriller novels.  I'm watching lots of Children and Family movies, such as Homeward Bound and Shark Tale.

Week 17

A couple of things happened this week 17 of my pregnancy.  I haven't been really craving too many foods, but last night I had to have Orange Chicken from Panda Express.  It was very tasty.  Then I had two bowls of ice cream for dessert at my friends house.

The other great thing that happened is my stomach (baby) has popped out.  I've had a little baby bump for a week or two but this week it seems to have really popped out.  It's round and definetely noticeable.
