It's Pat: An Update
Today was my 18 1/2 week ultrasound!
I should start by mentioning that I had to pee EIGHT times while at the doctor's office. They ask that you drink lots of fluid before you come. Being the overachiever that I am, I most certainly did. I barely made it.
I bet you're wanting to know our baby's gender now, huh? We'll, we finally have a gender for "It's Pat." Drum roll, please......
It's a............... GIRL!!! A very active, kicking, long-legged girl!
Maybe I shouldn't have sold our baby girl clothes at our garage sale? I thought we were done.
As for all the 'issues' I've been having. Well, I will continue to have them and they will do another ultrasound in another month. The position of the placenta has improved which is good news. I see no reason to worry too much. There is, however, a direct correlation between how active I am and how my body is doing down there. I'm simply doing too much. I should still be on 'pelvic rest' which means limited exercise, bending, lifting, squatting, etc. I've had help cleaning my house and need to accept more. Thanks for everyone who has offered!! If you've offered, you are on my list for sure now!
So..... Nathan had better start saving for another wedding!!!!
