For those of you that don't know...WE ARE PREGNANT!!!


Darin and I are having a little boy in the middle of April. I haven't posted a blog in so long, so I know this is way over due...but we are 22 weeks along and are doing well.
I was really sick the first 15 weeks, and then have had a serious back problem (my SI joint is lose from the pregnancy) so I have been in physical therapy 2-3 times a week and am wearing a 4 inch wide belt around my waste to stabilize my pelvis...all sorts of fun! :)
Darin and I were both positive we were having a girl (we had given her a name and referred to her as a she the whole first 20 weeks), so you can imagine I was a little surprised when we went in for the ultra sound. I cried through the entire appointment because I was so certain it was a girl...so much for maternal instinct. Anyway, things are good, I have not really been showing yet, but I definitely feel pregnant, and can definitely tell things are not the same with my body as they used to be. The doctor told me at our last appointment that our baby is under the 25th percentile for weight, so she thinks he will weigh about 6 pounds or less...I was so thrilled, I tell my mom every day I would chose 6 pounds of baby coming out of my body any day. :) (now watch, he will weigh 10 pounds)

Congratulations! That is such exciting news! You know I did the exact same thing, only I was sure I was having a boy. When I found out it was a girl I went through a period of mourning for my little boy, "Conner." Now, I'd never trade Ashlynn for anything! I am so happy for you guys! Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy. :)
