June 11.....~17 Weeks~

Just a quick update...things have been busy around here! Between trying to stay cool still and getting ready for our first camping weekend of the year, there hasn't been much time for relaxing!

Yesterday was my 16 week check up. Of course for the second time in the last 2 months, I totally forgot about my appointment until I was in the shower and already late! I only ended up being 15 minutes late, and the nurses were laughing at my "pregnancy brain"! Just not a good way to start the morning! Everything looks great! It just was a quick visit to go over everything. I have only gained 2 pounds so far, which is awesome considering what I have been eating! The doctor did fore warn me, that number is going to start creeping up fast! I heard the heartbeat, 150-160 bpm and strong! Our next appt. is 7/7 and thats the anatomy Sono! Kennie is very excited! Although at that point, we would be able to find out what we are having...but we are still going to not find out and be surprised! I am so relived that I'm feeling great and the baby seems to be also doing well...
Here is my 17wk belly pic....I'm really starting to grow!
And here is what is going on with the little bean from Babycenter.com....
Your baby's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to bone, and the umbilical cord — her lifeline to the placenta — is growing stronger and thicker. Your baby weighs 5 ounces now (about as much as a turnip), and she's around 5 inches long from head to bottom. She can move her joints, and her sweat glands are starting to develop.
Everyone enjoy the rest of the week, the weekend is almost here and tomorrow is actually my Friday! Love to all!
