18 weeks!

WOW! That's all I can think right now. Wow! I cannot believe that I am almost half way to meeting this little miracle that has been kicking me a lot!

My U/S is tomorrow! I am really starting to get nervous. There are so many things that could have gone wrong that I don't know. I hate thinking that way, but I have to be a realist. I was so optimistic with past pregnancies, and look at where that got me. So, I'm hoping that if I am realistic about what could happen, it won't. Does that make any sense?

So, that said, I am hoping that since I am getting a perfect 140 bpm's each and every time I check baby's heartbeat AND I am feeling kicks/punches/moving around so much, that everything will be just fine.

I am NOT looking forward to drinking 32oz of water within an hour of having the u/s. I can't drink 8oz without running to the bathroom in 10 minutes :-( Oh, the things we do for our children :-) If you are pregnant or have a baby, did you drink all the water you were told to?

I hope you all are having a fantastic day! I will update as soon as I can tomorrow!

18 weeks already! Wow!! :)

I remember drinking lots of water trying to get as close as possible to the 32oz. During the sonogram the tech said hmm.. the baby doesn't want to sit still so go relieve yourself a little and that should help LoL. I wouldn't worry about drinking all that water just drink what's comfortable.

Hmm.. is there any way we can change your mind about finding out the sex.. LMAO.. I'm like a kid on Christmas morning .. still learning my patience :-D

Hi! I'm thinking about you alot! I can't believe you are 18 weeks! The time really flies.

I can't wait to hear about your u/s! I wish you were finding out what you are having...

I've never had to drink anything before an u/s, and don't understand why they have you do that. I know that I couldnh't even drink half of the required amount, though!

Thinking about you!
