19 weeks

Well, just a little update before we go in in a couple of days to find out the baby's gender...

It's official! I felt Nibbler kick! It was the day before we hit 17 weeks! We got a Fetal Doppler and it took us about 20 minutes to find Nibbler's heart beat so I finally figured out where the baby was actually located. Then I knew for sure that little one was kicking up a storm! Awesome thing about it all was the next morning I woke up to Nibbler kicking around :-) I woke DH up and put his hand on my belly and he felt Nibbler! I was all excited, he just asked... "Are you sure you don't just have gas?" Men! Now funny thing is he has only felt the baby one other time... every time we try Nibbler quits moving, lol. DH's Mom got to fell Nibbler last week! She is the only other one to have felt baby move!

We just got back from visiting DH's family. We had an amazing time! Both DH's Mom & Dad got to go to Babies R Us with us and help pick out things for the baby registry! I was supper excited to have his family get to be a part of baby stuff. It's hard not having our parents close by. I wish we could all be closer together. But, I am determined to hopefully have everyone involved some way or another. We did come back with a car full of stuff though... we now have a stroller, a car seat, and a pack n play sitting in our living room in boxes with a couple other odds and ends :-D
Also, Mom helped me make belly bands! I even have gotten to try a couple out! We took some inexpensive cami's and tees and cut the top portion of the tops off and hemmed them up. They work exceptionally well! That and I also saved anywhere from $5 to $25 per belly band! What can I say I'm all about saving money!

Things are finally setting in. That and Nibbler is wiggling up a storm!
