15 weeks

So far I've been truly blessed with an easy and comfortable pregnancy.  I had nausea in the beginning and have only been sick once. So, when work started back I thought I'd feel fine.  So, of course on the first day of school at about 8:15, I had to run to my office and puke my brains out in my trash can.  I was in the main office helping with parents and registration, etc...when a wave of nausea came over me and I had to haul ass out of there.  Luckily, I was not with kids or parents and was able to get sick in the privacy of my own office.  I felt fine for the rest of the day and haven't been sick again since.  I guess Baby G was just making sure I hadn't forgotten about him/her.

I had an appointment this week and got to hear hear the heartbeat which was 144 bpm.  I scheduled my  next u/s on Sept. 19 and that's when we will find out the sex.  I am so excited and I hope the next 3 weeks go by super fast.  Of course I'm excited to know the sex, but I'm also excited just to see the baby again.  I keep imagining how that moment will go when the tech says boy or girl and I picture us bursting into tears and laughing with joy.  I can't wait to share that with TJ.

I had another baby dream last night.  I've only had a handful of dreams, but it's always a girl.  I was holding our baby girl and she was wrapped in a blanket.  She was so tiny.  She also had red hair and looked like my niece Addison.  My family keeps joking that we're going to have a red-headed Mexican.  I can't picture having anything besides a dark-eyed, dark-haired baby, but you never know. 

I am still feeling that fluttering feeling in my lower belly.  It happens at least once a day.  The books say that between 15 and 16 weeks, the baby should be able to hear you.  I have to get used to that.  I'm definitely going to put a variety of music on my belly for the baby to listen to.  I want him/her to appreciate all genres of music, so why not start now.  It's never too early to listen to a little Bone or Lil Wayne right?
