Meet Baby Girl Richert!

Some pictures of the wee miss.
She was waving at us, she has feet like her dad, and she was very relaxed, lounging about in there! :)







Isn't she lovely?! :)

5 months ~Half Baked~

Yep, its true. We're getting a GIRL!!! :)
We couldn't be more excited!!

Here are a couple of new belly shots.
(Its true what they say about stripes. They make you look HUGE!!)

The "Richert" Family Is Having a.......

ULTRASOUND DAY!!

"Hopefully" this baby will co-operate and let us see what he or she "is".
Of course, our fingers are crossed for a happy and healthy baby...anything else we find out will be a bonus. :)
We are so excited!!

Or a Girl?

19 weeks and 3 days

Time seems to be going by faster now!
In a few days I will be half way done this pregnancy.
WoW!

Thought Id come in and give a quick update.
We're very excited, our ultrasound is in 4 days!!! YAAY!
Stay tuned for (hopefully) a revealing of what thee baby "is".
We're hoping for "healthy"! Anything we find out other than that will be a nice bonus!

Ive actually been having some braxton hicks contractions! At first I thought..."No Way"..that can't be what it is. But I talked to some other mom's and dug out my baby book and sure enough they start out around the 5 month mark..and you can feel them earlier with your second and subsequent pregnancies. It usually if Ive been on my feet for a long time and Ive been busy cleaning or moving stuff around, etc.

Been feeling the baby move around alot more the last couple of days to. We went to a movie last night and baby was moving around TONS!

Ive been having all the aches and pains that is a par for the course when you're pregnant. My back has been killing me. My hips hurt, my ribs are so sore and feel bruised. Im attributing this to everything moving and shifting and stuffs getting squished up in there!!

Anyways, enough complaining. Things seem to be going well. I have another prenatal appt. at the beginning of Feb. Then I go for the yummy glucose test at 22 weeks. (Barf)

Stay Tuned!! :)

Prenatal Today! {17 weeks 3 days}

Had another prenatal today!!

The heartbeat was 162. It sounded lovely and loud..nice and strong.
[AND..again..I mention...162 is girl territory!!:]

Blood pressure was good. 110/70.
(Felt my ankles to check for swelling. Was most embaressed when I remembered I hadn't shaved my legs in DAYS *ugd*)

He poked around my tummy for a bit and Im measuring perfectly for 17.5 weeks. He said there is not twins in there and he reassured me Im not "BIG".

All totalled, Ive gained 6 lbs so far this pregnancy.

I got my ultrasound booked for January 25th! We're super excited!!! :)

Everything went really well, except that I have ANOTHER bladder infection. (Or a bladder infection that doesn't go away...EVER.)

Another appointment in a month!!

Ive been feeling quite alot better. Im trying not to sleep as much..but Im still really tired at certain moments during the day.
I haven't been sleeping worth a crap either. Insomnia is back with a vengance.

Taking it one day at a time. Will soon be half way done. Can't believe it! :)

Let The VOTING Begin!!

Is Dani having a: BOY or a GIRL?

Points to ponder..
~belly popped out in front VERY early.
~ass has grown tremendously
~much crankier this time around
~at last Dr's visit HB was 150bpm (previously to that is was 160 bpm)

So please, CAST your vote in the comment section.
You can simply put, Boy or Girl, or you can leave me a lengthy post about why you have picked either. :)

If you end up being correct in your vote then you are the winner of a sense of satisfaction at just being "RIGHT".

Let the games begin!!!!!!!!!
