Second Trimester!

Hey all! Happy St. Patricks Day! Hope you all have a green beer for me! :)

I've been horrible at updating this thing and thought I should write a quick note. I'm currently at 15 weeks and in my second trimester. I'm feeling better and have a little more energy (some days). I'm still wearing my clothes but my jeans are getting pretty tight and usually end up unbuttoned by the end of the day :) I'm sure I'll have to take a shopping trip pretty soon!

We have our next Dr. appt next Tuesday and we'll get to hear the heartbeat again. We get to find out the sex of the baby at 20 weeks. I can't wait! I'm so excited to start planning a nursery and buying pink or blue stuff. Yay!

I came across this picture and thought I would share it. We had this photo morph done a couple of years ago with our friends Joel and Rebecca. You sit in a photo booth and it morphs your faces to see what your future child will look like. Ours actually turned out pretty cute and it kind of looks like John did when he was a baby. We'll see how accurate it is in a few months. :) Joel and Rebecca's didn't turn out as cute. Their morphed baby had crazy curly hair and buck teeth. Luckily their daughter Maggie turned out absolutely beautiful and certainly doesn't have buck teeth yet! :)


Hope you all are doing great!! Have a HAPPY EASTER!!!

Healthy Baby!

We got to hear the baby's heartbeat today!! The heart rate was 160 and we could hear the baby moving all over the place. It was amazing.! I am currently 12 weeks and almost done with with the first trimester. I'm FINALLY starting to feel much better. Not as much nausea and not quite as tired. I feel like I can actually function like a human being again.

Here's a pic of my belly at 12 weeks. It's coming along!







A friend of ours recently told us about the Chinese Gender Chart. We thought it would be fun to try it out and according to the chart we're having a girl!
(The horizontal rows represent the month of conception and the vertical rows represent the mother's age, by lining up the two rows you will get the result of the prediction for the baby. Pink is a girl and blue is a boy.)


Another wives tale I recently heard is if your baby's heart rate is over 140 it's a girl and if it's under 140 it's a boy. Our baby's heart rate today was 160 so this also says we're having a girl.
We'll see in about 8 weeks. We can't wait! You can vote for what you think baby Ainsworth will be on the margin of this page.
