So last week (16 weeks) was the best I have felt in the past 10+ weeks.  I did not have to take my Zofran for a good 7 days in a row.  And then, AND THEN this morning (17 weeks exactly), I threw up again and had to resort back to my nausea meds *sigh*.  This baby sure is giving me hell.  I’m sorry I called you a little f-er!   I take it back!

To Our Baby,

You are giving your Mommy one heck of a time growing you!  You’d better be nice to me as a teenager from everything you’re putting me through already!   And don’t think you’re letting Daddy off the hook, he’s been working hard taking care of me and the house!  Tomorrow is the day we find out if you are a boy or a girl…. Wow! I can’t believe it’s actually time.  I hope you aren’t being shy!   Today you are the size of an onion from crown (head) to rump (butt), that is about 5 inches long.  Plus your long Atkinson legs (your Daddy is from a family of tall people!).   You are starting to develop some baby fat on your body…. you have to give all your Aunties something to squeeze!    Tomorrow we will get to see you on an ultrasound again, I can’t wait!
