18 weeks

I had another doctor's appointment this morning.  I gained a whole pound this month (3 pounds in all), and the baby's heartbeat was 156.  This little guy is pretty quiet in there...not much kicking or movement going on that I can feel, which is not like the others at all at this point.  They were all super active!!

differences so far with #6...
*major fatigue in the first trimester
*mexican food (my usual favorite) made me sick (thankfully I'm over that now) :)
*heartbeat in the 150's as opposed to the 130's/140's like all the rest
*baby not nearly as active

I'm definitely assuming another boy, just stating the differences that I've noticed.  My boys are still hoping and planning for another brother, and I honestly would be happy either way. :)  Just looking forward to finding out!

I have an ultrasound scheduled for July 16th, and we ARE going to find out.  Just not at the ultrasound.  We'll probably have them write the results on a card (like we did with Oliver), and then find out possibly later that evening...perhaps involving some cake. :)

 This is me and my sweet friend, Kristy Johnson...wife of our assistant pastor, Parker.  She is pregnant with their first, and we are due a week apart!...I'm one week ahead of her. She just found out (early!) that they're having a boy!!  perks to being a nurse with access to an ultrasound machine. :)
