Christmas went great
Christmas was wonderfull , we spend it with my Family and finally told them it is a Boy .
We bought a card where u can record ur own message and gave it to my parents on Christmas eve . The message said Merry Christmas from the 3 of us , Meike ,Steve and ur Grandson Ben .
To say they were shocked is a understatment , the first Boy in the family for generations . And then the hugging and congratulation started , they made plan for what we will do when Ben is here , what to buy for him and how they will have to get used to changing a boy .
DH bought me the best present ever , a home doppler , I can listen to his HB whenever I need reasurrence that Ben is OK when he is not moving much .
And boy is he started to move , little pokes pretty much every day now .
My Niece even said she could feel him move when she put her hand on my tummy .
I really love being pregnant and feeling him move about , this is worth all the aches , heartburn and other little pains that the pregnancy brings with it .

Midwife Check Up
Went for a check up today , was a bit nervous because Baby didn't move a lot yesterday . And when she looked for the HB it took a bit to find and it sounded distant , which might be because he moves as soon as there is pressure on my tummy and the placents in in the front/side on my Tummy . Anyway HB was 128 and Midwife siad that was a good HB .
Since I got back had some more movment and a few kicks :) , Baby really knows how to freak Mama out .

Team Blue
Had my U/S yesterday , first we had to wait over an Hour , got told it might take some time but there was only one person in front of me and soembody else who didn't have a appiontment .
When we walked in to the room and I lay down , I was getting nervous again
What if something is wrong with Baby ? Is it really a Boy ? Is it still alive ?
The M/C last year was on my mind and I was holding my breath when she put the little handheld thingy on my belly .
And there Baby was lying still for once (probably sleeping) and the little heart beating away . She started measuring the brain , the back , kidneys and legs , when she started on the heart but couldn't get a good look . So on she went to the arm and because Baby was lying on its side , she started to shake my belly with the thingy to make it move , which it did and back to the heart to get a better look .
By then she was pushing and jiggeling to make baby turn but it's a stuporn little person , so I had to get up and run up and down stairs , jump around to get it to turn . To no avail , no mather what Baby was not turning .
Doc got some more messurments she needed bt not the heart and no 3d face shot , but after my little talk with baby , telling it if somebody prodes the belly to open it's legs , it did IT'S A BOY
The first in my Family and the first in DH family since he was born .
Everything looked fine and only have to go back to take another look at the heart if my Ob wants me too ,which I don't really mind at all ; )

20 Weeks today
Halfway through the Pregnancy , some part feels really happy and some part really sad that it will be over soon . And then there is the feeling * I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE I'M GONNA HAVE A BABY * I know I should be used to being pregnant by now but it still surprises me when people say Congrats or comment on my tummy .
I feel like a Imposter and any second somebody starts to scream ~ She is a fake ~
No real kicks yet , loads more strange pocking which could be gas or some round ligament pain , too scared to say that is Baby and then find out on the next U/S that soemthing is wrong .
Maybe it's cause it took so long to get here that I'm worried it could be taken away any second , if I get to confident .
So 2 days to go till I get to see my Baby again and hopefully not long till I get the proper first Kick .

U/S UPDATE
Had a U/S at 18 + weeks to meet my new Ob , sadly she/he ? wasen't there BUT still got to see my baby again . And the Doc took a genderguess looks like a Boy , coudln't tell for sure cause Baby wa smoving around so much .
People ask me if I can feel baby move and I really don't know . It scares me a little because so many Women in my DDC are talking about movment and there is nothing where I would go and say Oh yeah that was Baby . I know most first time Moms feel nothing destintiv till about 20 weeks and I am 19 weeks now . Does the worrying ever stop ?
