2nd Prenatal Appt--17 weeks

Went to the OB on Thurs. Jason was able to make it to this one and heard the heartbeat again! Strong and loud, 163-168. The doctor seems to think it's a girl b/c the heart rate has been higher and I broke out in zits (extra estrogen in my system). But we shall see...I got my script for my ultrasound. I'll make the appt in the next two weeks!! Very anxious now to find out. I don't really have a feeling what it may be, but I want to say a boy just because that's all we have in the family. At least I have a 50/50 chance! I feel the little one moving around every now and again. Such a strange feeling, like little flutters. And I'm sure it's not gas =) So, still feeling good, no big craving yet. Tend to lean towards sweeter stuff, salads and pasta. Don't ever crave meat, but I still like to eat it! Can't wait to go home in July to hog out on my favorite foods--and this time, I have an excuse to eat!! Will keep you posted on what we're having!!
