In Four Days...


We will find out if Baby Johnson is a girl or a boy.  Yep, that’s right…we’re having a baby!!  We are due on January 21st and can’t wait!
Here’s some bump pics to catch you up.  I’ll start a regular weekly update next week.

10 weeks:


15 weeks:


16 weeks:


17 weeks:


19 weeks:


Everything has been going really well so far - I've been very lucky.  About the only symptoms I've been dealing with lately are heartburn (which isn't different from pre-pregnancy) and not being able to sleep.  Between painful hips and crazy dreams, I wake up throughout the night.  At least it's good training for when the baby gets here :) 

I had a very "pregnant" dream tonight.  I dreamed that I was in a pastry shop full of cheese danish, bear claws, muffins, donuts, bagels, etc. and everything looked so wonderful that I couldn't decide what to eat!  I woke up at 3:30 a.m. starving and craving blueberry muffins.  So...since I couldn't go back to sleep...I got up and made blueberry muffins at 3:30 a.m.! :)  At least it's the weekend, so I can take a nap this afternoon if I get too sleepy.

Now, let's refer to the Old Wives to see if we are having a boy or a girl:
  • Carrying High or Low?  I think I'm carrying high:  Girl
  • Baby's Heartrate?  It's always been over 140 bpm:  Girl
  • Sweet or Salty?  Sweet!  Hence, the dreams about pastries and cooking blueberry muffins at 3:30 a.m.:  Girl
  • Chinese Birth Chart?  The chart says:  Boy
  • Mayan Predictor - Age and Year of Conception?  One is even, the other is odd:  Boy
  • Skin?  I haven't had any breakouts:  Boy
  • Wedding ring on a piece of hair - which way does it spin?   My boss's secretary actually made me do this when she found out about the baby yesterday.  It spun in a circle:  Boy
  • Morning Sickness?  It didn't seem that bad, but I don't have anything to compare it to:  Boy
  • Shape of Mom's Face?  My face seems fuller to me:  Girl
  • Which side I prefer to rest on?  Right:  Girl
Well.. it's a tie!  I guess we'll just have to wait until Wednesday!!
