Baby Information?
Heart rate was 150 at my appointment today. That's all I know! I'll most likely be going for an ultrasound soon, so maybe I'll learn more about this little girl!

Any doctor news?
Blood pressure is 104/60 today, and was 120/60 yesterday at the cardiologist (nervous, much?) I had Mitral Valve Prolapse when I was pregnant with Lucas, so I had to go to the cardiologist for a follow up. He heard the regurgitation and wants to see me again next month. He wasn't concerned because it went away shortly after I had Lucas.
I went for my baby check-up today. He talked to me about the fact that my placenta has an accessory lobe (gosh, I hope it has matching shoes!). I was a little annoyed that I had the ultrasound in January, and this is the first I'm hearing about it, but at least I know about it now. Basically, that means that my placenta is in two places, connected by a blood vessel. So, if I go into labor and deliver, they just have to make sure they get it all after I have the baby. They will be monitoring be closely through ultrasounds to watch that, the size of the baby, and my amniotic fluid levels since Lucas was BIG and my fluid level was really low right before I had him. I go again in three weeks for another check, and they'll decide when they want to start the ultrasounds.

Best moment ?
I'm on Spring Break this week. We've gotten a lot of furniture moved, but the baby has no sheets yet, or anything else decorative, which is starting to bother me... but we still have 8 weeks, right?
Worst moment ?
I'm grumpy. I'm snappy.
Stretch Marks?
Still no. Lots of lotion!
Still no. Lots of lotion!
Maternity clothes
Yup. I really wish my daily outfit for school could be pajamas.
Symptoms
Nothing different, really. Heartburn. Have to use the bathroom a lot. Minor nosebleeds. All the fun stuff that comes along with 3rd trimester!
Cravings
Grapes. Water. I seriously can't drink enough lately!
Gender?
As
far as I know, she is still a girl! I'm sure as I get farther along,
they will want to do more ultrasounds to make sure she isn't going to be
as big as Lucas!
Sleep?
It comes and goes. I'm on an every other night cycle with halfway decent sleep.

What I miss?
Seeing my toes.
What I'm looking forward to?
Maternity leave... (8 more weeks) LOL! School has been very stressful with a couple of my little friends.
