Week 13 and Going Public

We had our 3rd appointment with Dr. Wong this past Saturday. This was the first appointment where Danny came into the exam room with me since we can now do an external u/s. I was preping Danny in case we weren't going to do any u/s since it's not common that mom-to-bes get u/s done at EVERY appointment. But to our surprise, not only did he get to see the baby through the u/s, Baby Lee was VERY ACTIVE and s/he was moving non-stop!! We saw Baby Lee kicking, waving, and even stretching! It was such an amazing moment for us. I just can't believe how human like s/he is already!  We weren't prepared for all that movement so we couldn't video tape it, but for sure, next time we will!

Dr. Wong measured Baby Lee's length and determined him/er to be at 13 weeks (which is a few days older than we originally thought s/he is) but my due date is still going to be on August 23. The good news is that it doesn't look like Dr. Wong will be away on vacation during that time (YAY!), I really really really pray that she will be the one that delivers the baby because we love her!

During the u/s, she asked if we wanted to know the sex of the baby since she can look for it already... we hesitated and I finally said "No"... ahh!!! For now, we decided NOT to find out the sex of the baby until that big moment in the delivery room when the doctor announces... "IT'S A BOY/GIRL!"... but knowing me, it's going to be reallyyyy tough not to find out! We'll see what happens at our next appointment (Week 17)...

Another good news is that I haven't gained any weight even though I feel like I look like a boat already... My goal is not to gain any weight until 5 months into the pregnancy.. we'll see what happens

We decided to go public on facebook since my first trimester is coming to an end :) and this Saturday will mark the beginning of our second trimester! Super excited hehe

Hope everyone is/will be having a wonderful Valentine's Day/Evening!
