17 weeks

Sweet baby Head is 17 weeks today!  Our little peanut is the size of an......

All that cartilage is starting to turn into bone! Fingernails and toenails are starting to grow from those tiny nail beds.  Baby Head's weight will increase 6 times its weight in the next 4 weeks! So crazy to think, because that will be our next ultrasound!!!

This past week has been a little bit crazy.  Tuesday, while picking out some fabric for baby bedding at sweet Nina's house (Justin's mom) I started not to feel so hot.  I went and got some water and came back to the fabric counter where the lady was cutting my fabric. The feeling wasn't going away and I knew that  I was going to faint.  I quietly leaned on the fabric table and told the lady to call 911 that I was going to pass out and I am pregnant.  Poor lady wigged out and starting saying " Ohhh Lawd" and went into a panic.  Well I just took a very quick nap on the fabric table and woke up in a rolling chair.  The paramedics came and checked me out and all was good.  My sugar just dropped and due to having low BP I have to make sure I am drinking water ALOT and eating every 2 to 3 hours.  My poor husband was in a panic and came home to baby me and peanut all afternoon.  Those of you who don't know, I work for the police department where we live, so this is quite embarrassing when the officer showing up is your co-worker.  I guess the plus side is I knew everyone around me and got a ride right to my front door :)

Well the next day, I had a headache all stinkin day along with a stomach ache that was gas just hanging out in my belly.  Ya know mom's just don't tell you all of these crazy things that will happen to you, they just want sweet grand babies.

All is well today and hopefully it will stay that way!  On another good note the doctor said all my blood work came back great, no spina bifida and my thyroid levels are normal ( I  have had thyroid issues since I was about 13).  So that is GREAT! 

The sweet baby daddy will be posting a picture tonight!!  Lets see how much more this bump is growing!?!?!
