203 days!

Here is an idea of what baby Grate looks like today!

That's right, in just 203 days (give or take a few....) Andrew and I will be welcoming our new bundle of joy into the world! Today is our 11 week mark, and I was able to hear the glorious woosh, woosh, woosh of the heartbeat at my doctor's visit! I looked at the doctor and said, "Well, I guess there is something in there!" He laughed and  said, "Congrats! You're pregnant!" The baby's heart beat was between 150-160 beats per min, Dr. said that all babies heartbeats are that pace at this time, so no hint if it's a boy or a girl! Andrew says it’s a boy and I have a strange feeling it's a little girl! Well, I guess we will find out in 203 days... since my loving husband wants a surprise.... I am considering not finding out if the baby is a boy or a girl until its born! That means we have to decide and AGREE on two names (I guess technically four because of middle names.....) which is no easy task for our very different taste in naming!

Here are some stats:

Our baby is over 1 1/2 inches long (the size of a fig?)

Weight:  0.3ounce

According to the scale at the doctors I have gained 1.1 pounds on my "pre-pregnancy" weight. not quite sure how that happend since I have been getting sick around the clock! The Doctor gave me a few more "tricks" to try for the all day sickness and it seems to be helping a little today!
