Bitty Communicating

Well, first, just to make sure I have documentation of everything on the blog, we did take the at-home gender predictor test which said we are having a boy! We have some friends out here that it was accurate for, but my sister-in-law Sarah said she had 3 friends that all got boy results and had girls! So, we'll see...we should be able to have an ultrasound on Monday and find out, but we're cutting close to get to our plane in time!!

Today I kept having intense stabbing pains in the uterus area, and I had heard that heat can help. So I took a warm bath and was listening to classical music and the pain went away. After my bath I went to the kitchen to get a snack, and the pain came back even worse! I was trying to get a pear out of the bag and rinse it off and it was nearly impossible I was hurting so much. So, I got my pear and went back over to my classical music and the pain stopped. So as long as I'm here at the computer listening to music it's fine! I think little baby likes the music! :)

Home in TWO days!!!!!!! Today we're cleaning up everything so we have a nice place to return to! :)

Registry Update!

Note: the registry has changed slightly! We have now also registered at Babies-R-Us! And some items that WERE at Target are now on Babies because we were able to actually see them in person instead of rely on online reviews

[There are some items at the bottom of the registry that cannot be bought online--in stores only]
(Registery #46263604)

If you look for us without the link, remember that there are plenty of Sarah Jones! You can look in Monterey, CA or even possibly my maiden name (Below). It will be Sarah and Michael Jones in CA! Oo, the registry number makes it super easy! And that can be easily shared with people that don't have the blog.

And here's the Target link again: https://www.target.com/registry/baby/1UDO2O63QPWR8
(Registry ID #014399701461787)

Also, if you get something off the registry, please please please purchase it through the registry so it comes off the list and we don't have to deal with multiples! :) If you find the same item elsewhere for cheaper, just let us know and we'll remove it from the list so no one else gets it; we're all about bargains!

As for clothing, we have no reason to register before we know the gender, so that will come in time. Also, it's not something we're too picky about; baby clothes are cute in general! Speaking of, there are some things on the register that ARE gender specific--in some cases we picked the girl and boy version (sometimes just one), just so it's on there and we don't forget about it. We will update it after we know!

9 days until TN!!!!!

Updates

So we just passed our four month mark! Today we are 16 weeks and 4 days--moving on up!

I meant to update every time we had an appointment, but this last one wasn't terribly eventful; I ad blood drawn (uck!), and we listened to the heartbeat for a few seconds, but Mike wasn't able to be there and it was pretty quick.

I believe Bitty is growing and moving--sometimes I'm not sure if I feel movement or not, but this morning it felt like a fish swimming around in my belly for a second so I believe that was baby! I also had a dream last night that we were taking a home test to find out the gender and it was undeniably a boy! But we are getting so close to that time that we should be able to know soon!!


Also, we started registering for stuff at Target! http://www.target.com/registry/baby/1UDO2O63QPWR8
(Also Registry ID: 014399701461787)

We've just started browsing around, so there will probably be items added with time; some things we want to go see in stores before registering for!


My friend Vanessa that lives in our apartment complex has a baby heartbeat monitor so we recorded the little bitty for you all to hear! (PS...sorry to disappoint, but it looks like I have a bigger baby belly in this [after food and in the position I was sitting], but it IS on the way! And my body looks odd shaped and it took me awhile to realize the extra "lump" on my abdomen was my hand! :))


TN BOUND IN 15 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-D CANNOT WAIT!
