Today I had another prenatal visit and everything went smoothly! I am almost 17 weeks and am sitting at the edge of my seat waiting until we get to find out if we are having a girl or a boy. In two weeks from today we will go back and get to find out!!
It seems like I have been waiting FOREVER to find out. I have been pregnant since last November (with the exception of February and most of March) and when the baby arrives I will have been pregnant for 12/14 months. Every day will have been worth it though :-)
Since finding out that we were pregnant the first time I have had this excitement and anticipation to know what we were going to have. It was very hard not having that answer during the miscarriage. Even though it wouldn't have made things any easier, I wanted to have some way to identify the child we lost. It is a strange feeling since I would have now been at full term if the first pregnancy would have continued. It seems more real to me now since I don't have that child to deliver. I guess you could say I am sad and joyful at the same time.
I am still not showing yet. I know it sounds weird, but I look forward to getting a little belly and looking pregnant. Once I start looking pregnant and find out what I am having the fun will begin--I will start shopping for me and baby :-)

Wow - just two more weeks till ya know? How extremely exciting!
I totally know how you feel about being pregnant for so long. When Caroline came I had been pregnant for a year almost to the day (with the exception of six weeks). I understand the ambivalence that you feel about being pregnant again and reaching the point of your first due date. I was sad when that day came for me even though I had so much to look forward to. I am thrilled that you guys are finding out soon what you will be having. It does make things more fun. Please keep us updated:)
