20 Weeks


Actually, almost 21 weeks, but who's counting :) The top picture is 20 weeks with Griffin. The two green are today with Cameron.


I looked back at my blog and Cameron is only 1 oz bigger than Griffin was at this stage. Wonder why the belly is so much bigger this time? Oh well. It's still pretty small, but I'll take it.


I had my ultrasound this morning and it was fabulous. Cameron looked absolutely perfect. The ultrasound tech at my office is so much fun. I guess she didn't have an appointment right after me, so we spent tons of time just looking at Cam and playing around with him. She sent me home with a DVD and 28 pictures.

He is weighing in at 1 pound already! We got to see him smiling and sticking out his tongue at us. The funniest part was when she tried to check and make sure he was still a boy. He was holding his boy parts and wouldn't let them go. We shook him, poked him, moved him around, and he wouldn't let go. The pictures from that part are so funny. When I get my scanner hooked back up, I'll post them.

We also got a couple of really good 3D ones of his face. He is absolutely adorable.

After the ultrasound I had my appointment with my doctor. That didn't go quite as well. My blood pressure is high...ALREADY. The first time they checked it was 149/99, and the second time it was 135/88. Dr. Watabe was a little concerned and wanted me to come back in 2 weeks instead of 4. Luckily I talked him into letting me go 4 weeks, and I promised to call if I was getting headaches, or feeling like it was high. I was so hoping I would be lucky and escape this stupid blood pressure stuff. Griffin was the only pregnancy that I haven't had a problem with it, and it was so much nicer not having to worry about it and not having to be sent over to the hospital for monitoring all the time.

But, high blood pressure aside, things look wonderful, and I couldn't be happier.

Then you realized that picture was really not flattering and I shouldn't ever cut my hair that short again, or post ugly pictures of myself. I am funny. I get it from Josh :)
