17 Weeks

things are moving along. We went to see the new doctor today - no ultrasound, but she gave us the info to schedule one in a couple weeks. So we will find out if it is a cedra or saric! but i dont know if we are letting people know. but i have no will power, so i will probably let people know. as long as, if its a girl, you promise not to buy all pink stuff! ha!!! I know a lot of people are hoping for a girl, and I know cedric is really hoping for a boy. I switch back and forth, so really, i'm fine with whatever. I did dream it was a girl though.

Since the new doctor doesn't do the ultrasounds at her office, cedric probably wont come with me anymore to the dr appointments, which is fine. We did get to hear the heart beat (140 - 145) so that was fun.

So far everything is pretty normal. I have been noticing funny things, like its harder to bend over and stuff. LOL

As for the normal every-day stuff, We are still living partially out of boxes, but are slowly working our way in. Giant is having a little trouble adjusting to things, but I think he will be fine. Hopefully he has less trouble adjusting to the new baby than he does adjusting to the new house. We'll see.

This is the babycenter update on how things are progressing:
"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.

so here is your obligatory turnip picture. (really? A turnip?)

Sounds like things are coming along well. I remember when I had the bending issues with mine. Amazing to think you are already almost 5 months along. Have you felt him/her move yet? The first movements feel like butterflies or gas bubbles which makes it hard to tell sometimes.
