17 weeks

Tons of you have asked for a picture of my baby bump. Sorry to inform you, but I do not have one yet! Here is a pic from this morning...I took it with my phone so it's kind of blurry.

I had a 17 week check up today and we are doing just fine! I heard the baby's heartbeat again and the doc says that it is strong and healthy. I weighed in today and I was 1 pound lighter than my weigh in last month. I'm still around -5 lbs, but my doctor says as long as I'm eating normally that she's not worried. She also assured me that in another 4 weeks I would begin to show and see some weight gain. Overall, she is very happy with everything, thinks we are very healthy, and she smiles a lot. If she's happy, I'm happy. I have a prescription to have a 20 week ultrasound so we should definitely know if this is a little boy or a little girl soon.

I recorded the heartbeat on my phone today and Sam got to hear it for the first time. He just gave me a really big smile... He is going to go with me to the next ultrasound.

That's it for now. I'll check back around July 4th week...hopefully with news!

Love,
Sam, Jenny, and Baby Mac
