It's a BOY!!!!

Well all my "myth" tests were right and I knew it! we are having a baby boy, and Lucian's prayers were answered! lol We were in the U.S room and Lucian says "are those his legs?" and Im like uhh yeah and do you see his penis between his legs, Anthony says ya "his 3rd leg" lol so it was pretty odvious we are having a boy! It was very exciting and we are all happy! They said the baby looks very healthy and has a "great anatomy" it took a while cause half way through the U.S he fell asleep and I had to get up and use the bathroom and dance around to try to wake him up cause they needed some other shots with him in another angle. He finally woke up toward the end. I got to see him move around a lot! it was cool to watch I coulda watched him all day long! Lucian was pretty anzy though lol. Anyways, we are very blessed and excited. I wish we could say we for sure had a name picked out for our baby boy but we are not 100% sure yet so we are not telling many people. But im sure we will agree on one soon!

Gender predictor quizes

Many people hear different wifes tales of finding out the babies gender before an ultra-sound in the 2nd Trimester. So, I decided to go through them cause I have no life at work...

Chinease Gender Chart: Boy

Wedding Ring Gender Test: Moves from side to side= Boy

Carrying high or low: low=boy

Cravings, sweet for girl and salty/sour for boy: Boy

Morning sickness not much = Boy, lots =Girl: Boy

Tounge thing BLUE VEINS: BOY, PINK VEINS: GIRL
Mine is Blue.

and I cant do the Drano one at work.


ok in the mirror and you will see,
whether a girl or a boy it will be,
Is your hair full of body, with a lusterous shine
or is it thin and stringy, and makes you want to whine? Full of body and shine.

For the next question, you need to look to your legs,
there down there somewhere, a little voice said.
Is your hair growing faster, could you make your own braids?
Or is it the same as before you were preg? Same as before.

How about your nails, Are they growing stronger and fast?
Or is the growth about the same as before
no changes at all? Stronger and fast

When you wake in the morn are you green at the gills?
Unable to rise from your bed without being ill?
Or are you a lucky one who morning sickness has missed,
and you spend your mornings in a state of happy bliss? No morning sickness just nausea.

Look at your cravings, for I'm told they will tell
the gender of your unborn child as well...
Is it sour taste that makes your day?
and lemons, and pickles keep you on your happy way?
Or do you find yourself craving sweets,
and always looking around for a nice little treat? Sour lemon popsicles and cheese dip.

According to all these questions I have a 80% chance of having a boy.

17 Weeks

I am 17 weeks this week! On Sunday the 25th Anthony and I will *HOPEFULLY* find out the sex of buddy! We both have been thinking its a boy, I heard from a friend that her sister's Ear, Nose, and Throat Doctor said that if the bottem of your tounge has very noticeable blue veins when you are pregnant that means you are carrying a boy.. all of my other pregnant friends have "normal" pink veins uder their tounges, but mine is blue! lol Anyways, sounds really stupid but Anthony always refers to baby as him/he, same with Lucian. So we will see. I am happy with either sex. It might be nice for me to have a girl around cause I get pretty tired of all the burps and farts talk in my house.

Anyways, today is my 24th Bday! I dont feel any older.. but it has been a great birthday. We celebrated all weekend cause Anthony works all day today, 8-5 PUD and 6-9:30ish he has EMT class. Lucian and Anthony went shopping for me early Sat, morning and brought me home a boquet of mixed roses and MR. STICKY. lol that was from Lucian. Anthony gave me part 2 of my present on Sunday, which was a card with Jack Johnson tickets to the Gorge in October! then we went to dinner with my parents at the nice Ivar's waterfront in Mukilteo, I ate my crab legs and then we went to Icecream and walked on the beach! Today I woke up to a big basket full of bubblebaths, body wash, and lotions from bath and body works. Lucian and Anthony made a basket themselves with all their favorite smells! This was deffinatly a great suprise and a great birthday. I feel very spoiled lol which I like! Also, my friend Sarah and I are going to go see Twilight Elcipse tonight, im a slacker and havent seen it yet!!!! ahh im excited.

Anyways, about the pregnancy. I am feeling a bit bigger. Im really itchy everywhere cause my skin is stretching. Doesnt help that I have a huuuge bug bite on my butt/thy that I might be having an allergic reaction to according to my nurse. Also, I had a rough start to 17 weeks. I was pretty I guess you can say "SAD" last week. Kind of up and down with my mood and felt very lonely and depressed on nights where Anthony had EMT class after work. Also, the past few days I havent been able to feel the baby move that much. I feel some strong kicks every so often, just not as much little movements as I did the past few weeks. Anyways, Im sure everything is okay. I am bouncing out of the saddness. I just need to occupy and de-stress myself and reach out to my friends more when Im down.

Anyways, Im really excited to update everyone *hopefully* next week the sex of our baby!

Today I am 16 weeks. I pretty much feel like that Nadia lady lol. Just kidding. But today strangers that I check into the clinic are commenting on my baby bump... which is a first. I thought I just looked like a white trash girl with a beer gutt lol. But, some people can actually tell that Im prego. Oh, and also I have been trying to go on walks on my lunch break and 15 min breaks during the day since the weather is nice, I go to the lake across from my work, Silverlake. Its pretty nice. The walk today was kinda harsh, its 90 out, I thought I was gonna pass out. I walked to the store about a mile up the street and forgot my water. I bought one there and a popsicle and headed back, now I am all sweaty at work and have blisters on my feet since im a genious and wore flip flops today.

15 week OB appt.

Today I had a 15 week check-up with Dr. Nicolov. Things went great, I got to hear the babies heart beat. Also, I got to schedule my ultra-sound to find out if the baby is a boy or a girl on the 25th of July. Which is great cause it was originally scheduled for the 22nd of August! we are excited cause Lucian will still be here and will get to find out the sex of the baby with us! he is hoping for a brother.

15 weeks I popped!

Anthony and Lucian got to feel baby move yesterday! We were laying in bed and the baby was just rubbing around my lower abdomen, it was pretty cool that they got to feel it so early! its such a weird but cool feeling. I think pretty soon he/she will be doing flips in there!

14 weeks, 2nd Trimester.

When Anthony and I were on our way home from Priest lake Idaho I felt the baby! we were in the car and I felt fluttering and little bumps in my stomach! It was very exciting, but I didnt know if it was real cause I heard you couldnt feel that until about 18 weeks. Anyways, I talked to my doctor and he said it is normal since Im very petite to feel the baby early!
