Preggy update and GENDER reveal :-)

Can’t believe that 2 weeks passed since my last update.  This pregnancy is flying by, but at times also feel like its passing so slow.
 
Yesterday we had our 17 week scan, I decided to move to a new doctor and I am so happy with the choice I made.  I am glad I decided to move.  We also had our gender reveal, but more about that in the update that follows below:
 
1. How far along are you now? 17 Weeks
 
2. When is your due date? 8 July 2014
 
3. What has been your preggy high this week? Finding out the gender and seeing baby move around on the scan yesterday
 
4. What has been your preggy low this week? Been sick with the flu, again, really feeling terrible and very sorry for myself.  Also waiting for blood results after glucose was picked up in my urine, not too worried as I read this can be normal in pregnancy as long as the levels are really low.
 
5. What is your current over-riding emotion? Excited about the baby’s gender
 
6. What is on your list of things to do in the next month re prep for baby? Take Hayley shopping this weekend to buy something for the baby.  Start sorting out the baby’s room, moving furniture and moving the cot into the room
 
7. When is your next appointment? 24 February 2014
 
8. What is your current craving? Nothing
 
9. How are you feeling physically? Preggy related I feel so much better; just wish this flu will disappear
 
10. How are you feeling emotionally? Really excited, sometimes anxious for having a second child, but I know it will all work out in the end
 
11. How is your partner dealing with the pregnancy at this stage? Really great, he does so much in and around the house to try and help me feel better and comfortable. I am so grateful that he is in my life.  He is really super excited at the moment.
 
12. Do you know the sex of your baby yet? Yes!!! It’s a little boy and we will be calling him Logan.  He was flashing us over and over again during the scan, making sure we see that he is definitely a little boy.
 
13. Will you be trying for Natural or Caesar? Caesar
 
14. Which hospital will you be having your baby at? Krugersdorp Netcare
 
15. How are you feeling about the pregnancy at this point? Loving it! It is such a special thing to go through. I have days where I worry, but mostly I can’t wait. As much as I want time to fly I also want time to take a bit longer so that I can take in everything of this pregnancy as it will be my last.  I am really looking forward to feeling proper movement.  At times I feel light movements, making me so excited for what is to come.
16. What is your tummy measurement? Don’t know
 
17. How much does your baby weigh at the moment? (Or at last scan). 160 gr and 13 cm according to my weekly email update
 
18. How much weight have you gained to date? 3 kg
 
19. What is your nursery room theme? Painting the room blue, but still deciding between a car theme, sea theme or lizard theme
 
20. What is the best preggy advice you have been given? Listen to your body and rest when possible
 
Below is a pic of our little boy from our scan yesterday.
