Fail.
I had a routine OB appointment this morning. Well, I had one after I called to make sure it was today, and they told me that my appointment had actually been the 20th and that I had been a no show.
...huh? My appointment card said the 28th. Granted, it said Monday the 28th, and I forgot to call last week to find out when my appointment really was, since yesterday was the 27th. Since nobody called me and told me I'd skipped an appointment, I just assumed I was right on time. They were able to squeeze me in at 9:30, though.
So far everything still looking good. I have to go in next time at 28 weeks to do the lovely glucose screen.
***
For the record, HSN and QVC carry some of the gaudiest, ugliest jewelry I have ever seen. Not saying it's all bad, they do have some nice things, but a lot of it is...ugh. They might benefit from that saying, "Keep It Simple, Stupid." The goal is not how many diamond chips can you possibly fit on an earring or a bracelet.
Wow...I guess I'm not feeling very nice today.

Random crap.
so yeah...I haven't blogged very much lately. Mostly it's because I don't have much time to sit and blog, but I haven't had too much to say lately either. So tonight it's 'yay' for random posting.
* Taco John's is not the worst place in the world to eat. If you can stomach the grease, it's occasionally quite good. The meat'n'potato burrito is quite tasty, especially with the crunchy chicken. It's actually making me kinda hungry now.
* I don't remember feeling this much discomfort so early on with my last pregnancy. The last few weeks have been a mix of sciatic nerve pain, round ligament pain, and lower back pain. On top of that, sometimes when I turn over in bed at night, I feel a stab of pain in the groin. I hit 25 weeks tomorrow...only 15 more to go.
* My kid is the most polite toddler I've ever seen. He usually says "thank you" when I give him something (a toy or a cookie) and we're working on "please." He even said "thank you" to the lady in the drive-thru at Taco John's yesterday.
* Then again, last night when reno was belching at will, B was imitating much to his amusement. He has also learned the joy of making fart noises with his hand. Oh, the thrill of having boys.

Baby's first haircut
Bobby got his first haircut last Friday. My cousin Jen, a hairstylist at a local salon, got the honors. His hair was getting so long in the back that it looked like he had a little baby mullet. Now he looks like a little boy again!
He really didn't care for it much, though. I had to hold him down after she started using the big-mean-hair-buzzing-thing...
Before:
After:
Amazing what a pair of scissors and a hair trimmer will do!

It's a GIRL
Yup, reno and I found out this morning that we're going to have a baby girl. Bobby is going to have a little sister.
I am thrilled to death!
They said everything looks really good, too. Baby estimated to weigh 12 oz, and the heart rate was 146. She was extremely active on the sonogram this morning, moving around her little arms and legs and you could even see her mouth moving. If she ends up being as talkative as Bobby, we're going to be in trouble! lol
Now that we'll have one of each, we have NO excuse to have any more kids. LOL
Face on the left, belly on the right, and hands at top and bottom.
It's pretty definitive that this is a girl, actually. Not only is there no "boy" parts but you could see the "girl" parts pretty well. :P

Ultrasound pics at 16 wks...
Baby looks a bit evil in this picture!
Another pic, all curled up into a ball
Legs curled up underneath his/her belly
I know, these things are hard to decipher. The baby's head is on the right side of every picture (that's the big blob, heh) and the belly (the smaller blob) is to the lower left of the head. A couple of pictures if you look closely you can see legs and in the top picture, an arm. No telling for sure what the sex is yet; the sonographer had a guess, but it wasn't 100%, and it could turn out to be either one still. I may find out more when I go in four weeks, if they do another ultrasound.
I loved Dr. Kindred, he was very thorough and really did cut through all the bullshit. He's highly recommending that I have another C-section since I had so many problems with my induction the last time. To me, it doesn't matter either way; I know some women would be crushed if they couldn't have a natural birth but as long as he/she arrives safe and healthy I don't care what door it comes out of.
We'll see what the next appointment brings. They may do another ultrasound anyway since they usually do them routine at 20 weeks, and I will be exactly 20 weeks then.
...I'm still kinda hoping for a little girl, even though we have all boy clothes, heh. A boy and a girl would give me and J a reason to quit having kids!
