Hoping for a healthy one!

Hello!!

Okay... so the last time I blogged I had said that I was pregnant again. Well..... I still am pregnant, but now I am very noticeably pregnant! I'm not even 20 weeks and am almost the size I was when I gave birth to Baby J- CRAZY!!! Since Baby J came two months early, my Dr recommended that I go to have my cervical length checked every 2 weeks as a precaution. The Dr that I am seeing does not want the baby to come out early again and since there was no warning sign that I was going to deliver prematurely with my first, he wants to make sure that all angles are covered so it does not happen again. It makes me feel better knowing that I am being carefully monitored and that the doctors and staff are concerned about my baby and my well being.

Every two weeks when I go to the hospital for my check, they do it by ultrasound. I really don't mind going there because that's the time I get to see my little baby. I always ask for pictures and not once has the technician denied me a picture of my little baby. I usually get around three pics every time I go and it's funny because I have almost filled a whole album with the ultrasound pics- the baby isn't born yet! It's good because I can really see how the baby is developing. I am going for the anatomy ultrasound in about a week even though I already know what the baby is. At my last two checks the technicians asked me if I was going to find out the sex and if I would like to know what I am having. Of course I said yes and they told me I was going to have another boy. I'm excited..... there were a lot of people that had told me I was going to have a girl by the way I was carrying and just how my face looked so that made me hopeful of having one of each. I'm excited that Baby J is going to have a little brother that he can play with and be buddies with. My friend also said that they can wear each other out! I hope that will happen so it's easier for me to get them to clam down and sleep... that is if I have two really active kids. This next one might be a total bookworm and be really really laid back. Who knows... all I am hoping for is a healthy baby.... I think that is all anyone can really ask for.

Well I better get going, it's getting late and since I can't rest much during the day and can't get a full nights sleep I better try to fall asleep before I get woken up.

To all a goodnight!
