Plugging along...

I've been laying low for the most part. Still in disbelief this is really happening! I've come down with another cold again only this time it's in my chest. I missed 2 days of work so far. I think I'm feeling better today, just a little tired. Went for my 3rd OB appt. today and I met one of the new OB's in the practice. He was nice but I expected him to be more friendly since he's on the younger side. The first thing out of his mouth was about my weight which didn't score any points with me. He asked me what my goal was with my weight. I told him I reached my goal today. And I did. I really don't want to gain any more weight although I know I will. I guess my new goal is to not gain more than 10 more lbs. He told me I could diet just not an extreme diet like Atkins or no carbs. I need to watch the portions and watch the fried foods. And I need to move more except I feel like I go from one cold to another and I am just completely wiped out especially after a day of work.

Not sure if I've felt him move in there. Occasionally I feel something but it can't tell for sure it's the baby. Hopefully it will get more obvious very soon. We are going for another u/s next week on Tuesday. Hopefully all will look well again. I haven't bought anything yet. I'm still too scared. Maybe after this u/s I'll feel more confident. I want to make sure he's growing on target. There's still so much that could go wrong, it's frightening.

We've come up with a name for him but I'm not sharing just yet. I have told some work people and everyone so far loves it. I want to be the one to tell family so I must be careful who I tell and when or else someone who likes to blab will be on the phone telling everyone before we get the chance.....just like they told everyone we were having a boy before we could tell anyone. You know who you are.
