16 weeks and growing strong!

Tomorrow I will be 16 weeks pregnant, which of course means our little Marley Moonshadow is now 14 weeks old. Monday (valentine's day) we had an appointment and heard a good strong heartbeat in the 150's. Ri got a kick out of it. Still counting down the days til we find out what's kickin' in there. The appointment for my ultrasound is scheduled for March 14th bright and early in the morning. I feel like I'll be really happy whether we are having a girl or boy, I just want to know. I am not a big shopper, but when it comes to baby stuff I am dying to get started. I really don't have a lot that I have to buy for this baby since I saved a lot of Ri's stuff, but if it's a girl I'll need some new clothes. I am getting excited to buy my first cloth diapers, and to do some online shopping. An update on my Jan 31st Colposcopy...there are indeed abnormal cells, but not a huge amount and doc will not biopsy til baby is born. We're hoping they will go away after baby comes, but who knows. Doc isn't worried so I'm just going to enjoy my growing family and not stress about things I can't control right now. I am feeling pretty good these days, but still battling a big of "morning sickness" in the evenings, and tend to feel sore every morning especially in my lower back. Pretty sure my bed is a bit too fluffy, but we can't buy a new one at the moment so I'll just make due and hope it doesn't get worse. Worse case? I start sleeping in the recliner or on the couch, which is pretty darn comfy. I am having some pain from my early pubic bone separation but luckily as long as I don't push myself with crazy long walks or take a lot of stairs, it doesn't get too bad. So far I am just trying to enjoy this new life adventure and soak up the last few months of having an only child. Ri is such a sweet little guy and always wants to hug and kiss my belly and talk to the baby. He even claimed the baby was riding a bike in my tummy! I asked how the bike got in there, but that just confused him. He comes up with some pretty silly stuff. At least at his age we can talk about what is going on so the shock of a new baby in the house won't be so harsh. Hopefully my next update will include a gender update! We're all waiting very impatiently for March 14th!
