18wks now, so almost half way done.

After eating more prunes than I can count, my digestive system is finally doing better and I am finally eating better. My wedding rings can fall off my fingers because I have not been able to eat much. Happily, I do get hungry from time to time now, which is better than before.

Had my Level 2 sonogram last Tues. All is well with baby. No indicators of problems of any kind. The baby cooperated and sat "just right" for a clear view. We are having a Baby Boy!

I knew it was! Only a boy could make me stop eating salads and other healthy foods that I LOVE SO MUCH!!!! And then make me WANT a McD's cheeseburger (ewwwwwwww!). I hope that is no indicator of how this baby will want to eat while he grows up. DD was easy to feed and ate all sorts of "good things."

So that is our update. All is well.

CNGRATULATINS!!!!! That is great news. When Chris and I try again, we want a boy. Do you have any names picked out? Please keep us updated with everything.

By Dana on Friday, September 10, 2004 - 11:06 am:

The name is Christopher David. We picked that name out on the first day we found out we were pregnant with DD. We liked it then, so we thought we would use it this time.

Thank you for all the well wishes.

I sure do hope that my regular likes and dislikes return to me. I hate eating such icky foods.
