Baby Update

Still feeling great. Baby number two is a very active little on. It seem that he/she really wants to be awake right when I'm ready to go to bed. It's so funny, and I'm not kidding as soon as I hit the pillow little one is on the move. Connor was the same way. I just sleep right through it. I'll try to post some pics of a couple belly shots. I'm almost 23 weeks, and my belly is starting to poke out. I still haven't put on any weight, but the doc assured me that it was fine. My last appointment I was told that the baby might have a clubbed foot. Which is OK very treatable, but I have to wait to see a specialist. My appointment is May 14th. I have done a lot of research. I found out that it is almost 1 out of every 1,000 births a child has some kind of clubbed foot. Wow I just was shocked when I read that. The type that can be seen on a ultrasound is the most common kind, and is usually treated by cast and not surgery which definitely gives me a peace of mind. I would hate to see my little baby undergoing surgery. I guess they start treatment a week or two after the baby is born. I have put it in God's hands and I know that know matter what he will see us through anything. I really am praying if it is a clubbed foot that just casting it will be able to treat it. So that's about it on the baby front.

Connor is doing very well. We just got him a twin bed which he loves. The baby room is almost done. Evelyn just really needs to paint. He HE :-) Ryan wont let me do any painting, but I sure can rake and shovel my little heart out when he is at work. We are getting out backyard ready for a privacy fence. i am soooooo HAPPY about it because Con sometimes wants to play outside, and I can't always be out with him, so this way I can open the back door and let him play when i can't be out with him....I'm gonna love it. We are having a fencing party for those who want to attend, and YES you do have to work. Payment will be in the form of FOOD...and maybe some pop or kool-aid. Yummie..:-) Well that's about all in the Schenk household.

Ultra Sound

So, today was the big day of the ultra sound. It was awesome having Connor in there with me. He kept on saying " I see the baby on t.v. mom" Too cute. Everything looks wonderful. Baby is growing, and I feel wonderful. I haven't gained any weight YET. I'm still 4lbs under my weight when I first got pregnant. I'll probably put on like 40lbs during my last trimester. I'm not eating all that great. I've ate so much candy lately. I'm surprised I haven't gained like 10lbs in a week...:-) Junk food junkie lately. I need to stop it the baby is going to be addicted to chocolate. I made it through the whole ultra sound without asking the sex. I closed my eyes when they wrote the babies sex out on the picture. I have it an a sealed envelope, and I'm not tempted yet to look, so hopefully I can hold out. I swear I saw a little penis, but who knows it was probably a little toe. I feel the way I did when I was preggers with Con. The baby is so LOW right now. He/she is having a tap dancing party on my bladder. I've been getting yelled at by my hubby because I guess I'm not acting like I should. The other he got on my case because I was jogging along the Gator, but in my defence I had to keep up with my Con as he was driving around the neighborhood. The other day he was yelling because I was trying to level out the ground to make ready for our privacy fence, but I just shoveled a little bit again in my defence. I'm sure he won't be happy when he comes home and sees I raked the backyard, but I'm not the type of person that can just sit and do nothing. I just have to get things done.. Oh well.. Wish me luck tonight hopefully I don't get in trouble..:-( Amy sorry, but it's totally a BOY!!!!!!! OK it might be a girl, but I'm thinking it's a boy. Crap maybe I should open that envelope.:-)
