So today I'm 3 weeks + 6 days and I officially have my first pre-natal appointment booked with the same Doctor I had with Keaton. She sees patients at 8 weeks, which is January 15th!! We even got the first appointment of the day. We'll have an ultrasound, discuss pregnancy timeline, go over the whats healthy & not, get a urine test, etc.
Although I'm totally happy for either gender, of course we would be thrilled with a girl -- that way we have "one of each" :) ...according to the Chinese gender chart, which was accurate for Keaton (of course when your odds are 50/50 or so, whose to blame), I should have a girl.
Our current Estimated Due Date is August 27th, 2014 ...knowing that our doctor doesn't generally allow patients to go beyond that & with the fact Keaton was born at 36wk 2 days, I think this little bumblebee will be here on or before August 14th.
You may be wondering, why bumblebee? I chose that nickname because it all happened so fast & has been a pain in my rear with nausea. This was our first month trying to conceive a sibling for Keaton and what do you know, God has his faith in us to carry one of his blessings!
We plan to tell our extended family later this week, we stopped receiving the wonderfully hated question of "when are you going to have another?" about a year ago. I wonder if people thought we were done? We weren't, we just were enjoying our time with Keaton... working on his speech, improving his social skills and getting to know him as he grows up (too fast!). Now that he can speak & sign words, we're excited to bless him with a best friend for life. Whether that be a baby sister he watches out for or a baby brother he teases, torments & tackles in sports.
