And the countUP begins.

For those who you who do not know, I gained quite a bit of weight with Morgan…..50lbs to be precise, though once I hit 50 in my second to last week of being pregnant I stopped looking at the scale.

Once again, here is a glimpse of what Baby #1 produced.
Not too bad from the front view….

Pretty bad from the side!  This was 12 hours prior to birth.

After my 18.5 week checkup today, I once again have began my 9-month journey to becoming an enormous person.  Seriously, it seems so disturbing to me…lol…and IT’S ME!

The checkup went great, the baby’s heart rate is around 155.  I don’t really take that to heart (no pun intended) because I don’t usually waste time guessing what the sex will be.  It will be what it will be – and we’re so excited and proud regardless.  Usually I don’t even ask but some friends were inquiring so I did just that:)

Oh, and the best part……the weight check.  At approximately 18.5 weeks pregnant I have gained a total of 18 pounds (thanks to my 8lb gain this past four weeks).  Oh golly.  What’s a girl to do!

Oh, and I guess this is the best part…..started feeling our 2nd Patten about two days ago.  Yippee:)
