17 weeks today.. ONION?! eww. ❤ what about you?!

wow, 17 weeks today & only 6 more days until we find out if we're having a beautiful baby girl OR a handsome little boy!!! I planned on finding out at our OB appointment that same day, but the nurse has already given me a heads up that we'll only be doing blood work & the usual ultrasound.. NO gender determination until around week 24.

well, this mama isn't waiting that long! so, I've scheduled a 2D scan for gender determination, we'll get a 10-15 minute scan, listen to the baby's heartbeat, a CD of the images, AND $10 off our next visit.. which will be between 25'ish-32'ish weeks when the baby has more body fat & defined face!!

"Baby A" is now about the size of an onion, which I've never liked haha, so we'll say he/she is the size of a GRAPEFRUIT according to my other app, and he/she's skeleton is changing from soft cartilage to hard bone & the umbilical cord is getting thicker!!

what about you mommies?!! how far along are you??
thanks for reading ladies, keep praying for us, and "Baby A" will officially have a name next week.. well, we have them picked out but you know.. lol! ((((: ❤
