Baby Size: Avocado
Weight: 154 pounds
The nest baby says the baby is about the size of an avocado and I love avocados especially lately!
After a day of sitting in inservice, Hector and I went to the doctor for my 4 month checkup. I definitely wanted him with me since I had to scare last month. There was a new nurse there today and after I was weighed and gave my urine sample, she asked us to go to the ultrasound room. Our next ultrasound was supposed to be at 20 weeks. I would have loved to see the baby again but I wanted to make sure when we were supposed to have one. The nurse went to verify and sure enough she said it was at 20 weeks. She took us back to a regular room and took out the Doppler to listen for the heartbeat. I got a little nervous but she found it right away. It was a strong beat - 145 beats per minute.
I gained 3 pounds so far.

Today was Meet the Teacher at school. I have 18 students on my roster and 14 showed up. U wore a big shirt because I wasn't ready to tell the parents that I am pregnant. I don't want them to worry about maternity leave and who will be the sub this early on. The ig shirt hid my baby bump that is definitely noticeable now. No one said anything if they had any suspicions.
When I lay down at night, I can feel something moving. It feels a little like butterflies - maybe it's the baby!
