Appendicitis?!?
Tuesday, the 2nd, Sean and I were at the hospital for a good 5 hours because they thought I might have appendicitis. And really there was no way for them to check (CT-Scan, MRI, X-ray) and I wasn't showing many of the signs for it, other then severe pain in my lower right side. So, they sent me home and told me to come back if I had the major symptoms like fever, vomiting, or loss of appetite. Or to come back in 12 hours if the pain was still there. Well, the pain is no longer there and I'm thankful that it wasn't something serious like that...I'm guessing it was a bowel problem (I know, TMI).
But we did get some new u/s pics!
And here's a pic of me at 21wks!

It's a BOY!!!!
We had our big ultrasound on the 21st and right away we saw that it's a boy. He was definitely not hiding it! We are so excited and can't wait to meet him. Here are some pics:
Sean said this is the strongest arm the u/s tech has seen and definitely a throwing arm for when he plays football for Notre Dame. =)
Getting ready to suck his thumb:
Waving to mommy and daddy!
We have 2 names that we're choosing from, however the name will remain a secret until the day he's born. We've picked out our bedding and it's just oh so cute!!! We'll be working on the nursery in the next couple weeks.

Updates!!
Not much changes these days, besides my belly and me feeling better =) I don't have any nausea left and honestly forgot what it was like to have it, so that's great! Now I'm in the countdown mode to find out the sex on August 21st. That's in 10 days!!
Had a little scare on July 31st when I woke with some spotting. I was out of town on business, but at least it was in Ft. Myers where I was staying with friends.
Went to the ER since I wasn't near my doctor. Had some more spotting as soon as I got in the ER bed, lovely. The Dr. came in and mentioned doing a pelvic exam to check out the cervix and that later we'd do an u/s. He said if the pelvic exam showed the cervix open then we'd cancel the u/s cause there would be no point...which freaked me out, I didn't think about a cervix problem. I asked if it was still possible to have a heartbeat if the cervix was open (cause I had hear the heartbeat at home with the doppler), he said yes. I couldn't wait for the pelvic at that point. It came about 15 min later and it took him awhile to find mine (said it was extroverted) and then found the tip and said it was CLOSED!! Best words ever! Then the nurse came in and couldn't find the heartbeat (doppler), I asked if I could do it and I couldn't find it either, which concerned me. However, the u/s showed everything was awesome! Measuring 15w5d!! I couldn't believe what I was seeing, it was amazing. I told him not to tell me the sex cause Sean wasn't there and he said then quit looking at the screen! Then I think I saw something quite obvious...I'm pretty sure it's a BOY!!!! =) Looked like "he" was saluting me! We find out for sure in 10 days!!! Then, we get to buy stuff, start decorating, making a registry list, etc!!!!!!!!!!!! I still can't believe we're here and almost finding out the sex....time is flying!
This is the fortune I received that night at an Asian restaurant:
I couldn't believe it when I saw it...almost started crying right there!
I've already received baby clothes from friends and family and it's so exciting. Here's my belly at 16wks. =)

BabyBeats!
It's been a little bit since I've posted so I gotta get caught up! I wasn't feel so good and being on the computer doesn't make it any better. However, we're now in week 13 and things are looking up!! So excited not to be feeling nauseous all the time. A few headaches and waves of nausea but it's better than feeling it all the time.
I celebrated my 28th birthday last week and I had much to celebrate that's for sure! I couldn't have asked for a better present then to be 12 weeks pregnant (and for my sister to call from Africa to wish me a happy birthday of course!).
We have our next appointment on the 24th and we can't wait! After that, we wait just 4 weeks to find out the sex of our baby!!! YAY!
I heard about this baby heart monitor that you can rent and listen to your baby's heartbeat at home. I HAD to have it, hehe. It's a heart doppler and it works great! As soon as I got home I tried it and found the baby's heartbeat and it was AMAZING!
**I'm trying to get the recording posted**
UPDATE: I found a site to host my recordings!!

Heartbeat from 7/14: http://media.putfile.com/BabyM1
Hearbeat from 7/22: http://media.putfile.com/BabyM2
The last one is a bit more crazy sounding...I think it's cause I had tea (caffiene) for the first time- oops!
