We had our most recent doctor's visit and Clark is convinced we are having a boy since our doctor said "He seems to be doing fine" and said he twice ha! I told him not to get too carried away with the fact that it might be a girl or a boy. We got to listen to the heartbeat again with the Fetal Doppler (I am not sure if that is exactly what it is called). On top of making a baby, I am making an ocean in there too! It made me laugh!
We have our next 3-D ultrasound on April 21st to make sure the baby is healthy and that there are no abnormalities... I get an ultrasound and a blood test done while I am there. My grandma will be going with Clark and I to that ultrasound. She is very excited and wanted to go to one, and what better one than a 3-d ultrasound.
Saturday was EXTREMELY busy! I had woken up at 6:00 a.m. to make cupcakes and deliver them by 8:30. After, I saw my grandma and then after that went to breakfast with Bryanne and baby Kenzie and had mani/pedicures. It was so nice and so needed! Girl time is a must and I was quite exhausted where I took a 2 hour nap when I got home... After the nap, we went to watch Blake and Jess's girls from 6:00 p.m. and wound up staying until 1:00 a.m. with Jess and Blake laughing and having a good time!
Nevertheless, I was exhausted when we got home at 1:30 and had to wake up at 8:30 to go shopping with my grandma and mom.
Sunday, I went shopping with my grandma and my mom. Both splurged on getting me new clothes and a new ring. My grandma got me a LOT of clothes from Motherhood Maternity and I am so very grateful for it. I will have a good few outfits (that I will be wearing OVER and OVER again) for the next couple of months until I get larger.
My mom bought me a new diamond ring. It is small and a great price for the fact that it does have diamonds in it. I just have to wait to get it resized. I went from a size 7 finger to a 9.5, so it was quite a jump!
It is amazing how nosy and how rude people can be. I understand at the doctor's office they have to ask you if you know who the father is... but since my ring hasn't fit and I go into the doctor's office, blood labs, etc. they all ask me if I know who the father is, and if Clark Ostrander (my emergency contact) is my father. When I went to CMH to get my blood work done, the girl asked me if Clark was my father and continued to insult me by saying well I am assuming you aren't married since you don't wear a ring. Do you know who the babies father is? First, it is none of your business. Second, I told her if you actually read my form, you can see that I checked MARRIED and under the emergency contact, I wrote in SPOUSE.
Now a days, it seems so many people are getting pregnant without getting married that it must be a norm to ask and pry into those types of questions. On top of making me very frustrated, it made me paranoid to get another ring. So, I did. Clark could care less if I wore a ring, but to me, it was important because at least then, people won't ask or pry into my personal life.
How far along? 13 Weeks (Supposedly... We will know for sure on the 21st)
Total weight gain/loss: 4 lbs and it feels like so much more!
Maternity clothes? YES! On top of yoga pants, since my boobs have gotten so big most of my shirts don't fit across the chest area and if they do it looks like I am now wearing a midriff shirt! Thanks to my grandma, Motherhood Maternity clothes are my new best friend... and SO COMFTY!
Stretch marks? YES.... However, the belly butter Bryanne got me is so thick it really helps!

Sleep: I try to go to bed around 7 or 8 every night since it takes me about an hour to fall asleep. However, with getting up so many times to go to the bathroom when I wake up in the morning, I am still tired.
Best moment this week: Watching Ryley and Haley and afterwards have fun with Blake and Jessica just laughing so hard!

Miss Anything? I STILL miss meat...
Movement: No, not unless you count that from 4-5p.m. everyday I get this odd gut feeling of movement ha!
Food cravings: Carbs... I am sick of people telling me that I need to eat more veggies... LOL What I can keep down is what I am going to keep down and since veggies come back up, carbs stay down for now! When I am craving something sweet, it is a McDonald's ice cream lol!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Moving super fast and the smell of cooking anything
Have you started to show yet: Yep.... I am starting to pooch out a little
Gender prediction: Still think it is a boy and Clark is convinced since the doctor said "he"
Belly Button in or out? In
Happy or Moody most of the time: A little bit of both... depends on how much sleep I actually get at night!
Looking forward to: The Easter Egg Hunt I planned for Sunday (Easter Sunday). I can't wait to see the nieces, and take a lot of pictures!
