23 week update

I went to the doctor last Friday and everything looked good.

-Heartbeat was in the 150's.
-Gained 4 pounds, which makes it a total of 11. Yeouch! I guess I should be honest and remind you that I lost 7 and gained that back, but do not count that in my 11. You can do the math. :)
-Reyna came with me and loved hearing the heartbeat. She was a good little lady during the appt. She just sat there in the chair, eating fruit snacks. I saw Dr. P. which made me want Reyna to be on her best behavior.
-I am measuring a week ahead. He didn't change my due date, but I'm okay with that. Maybe a little earlier than my actual due date? Reyna was 11 days ahead of schedule.
-Next time I go in, I have to head down to the lab first and have my glucose checked. Bleh!

As far as symptoms, I just love to eat and am very good at it. :) Everything sounds good. I polished off a box of chees-its last night b/c I saw a commercial for them and they looked delish. I am tired, but I am blaming that on a toddler who likes to get up at the crack of dawn. Still feeling a ton of movement. It's definitely getting stronger. Thus far, my pregnancy is going the same as Reyna's.

In a few weeks, I will be putting up a poll to see what you think we might be having. I am so anxious to see all of your guesses and there will be a prize in the end who has the closest guess.

21 weeks


Sorry for the dorky belly shot. Yes Em, it's a good pic, but I look like a dork. :)

Overall, I feel pretty good. I am feeling a ton of movement, which I love. I go back to the doctor next Friday and I am anxious to see what I weigh. I feel like all I have been doing it eating. I am tired all the time. I look forward to bedtime everynight. Not too much nausea, but on occasion, I do take a half zofran in the morning. I haven't been throwing up though. Hmmm..what else? Still no clue what the gender of this little peanut is. Jade & I both go back and forth. The acid reflux is still under control with the help of zantac once a day.
