Recap through 20 weeks

It has all happened so quickly! We started trying at the beginning of the year, and almost immediately conceived. We found out we are pregnant on March 4, 2009 after I randomly decided to take a pregnancy test. The results were immediate and shocking...PREGNANT! Although we were completely surprised because it only took us a month, we were overjoyed! The doctor confirmed a couple days later with our first ultrasound that we were indeed pregnant and appeared to be right at 5 weeks. I'm not gonna lie, the first couple months were tough. I had morning sickness (well, sickness occurred at night) and weird food aversions. I felt like someone had sucked the life out of me, I had no energy and I was tired all the time. Things were looking up at about 14 weeks, the sickness went away my energy was coming back and I felt great. I was finally looking forward to being pregnant! At 17 weeks, we went in for a follow-up ultrasound to find out the sex. I had a feeling it would be a boy, but the technician confirmed that we would be having a little girl!!! We were beyond excited and I was ready to start buying anything pink! By 20 weeks I had bought plenty of maternity clothes, we had ordered the nursery furniture, and we started receiving our first little gifts for the baby. Everything was coming together nicely all the blood work and tests were coming back normal and we couldn't have been happier!
