15 week check up

I went in for my 15 week check up. My MIL went with me because she has been wanting to go to an appointment with me. DH could not be there today because his scheduled got screwed up at work. Anywho it was nice to have someone there with me. He has officially moved my due date to 7/10. At my NT scan when I was 11 weeks 4 days I was measuring 12 weeks 5 days, that was the fourth time I had been measuring ahead; and he said he felt confident enough in moving my due date now. He brought the doppler in we listened to the heart beat which was 155bpm! MIL loved being able to hear the heartbeat! I have gained 9lbs, which he said is perfect. He likes to see women gaining 10 lbs by the time they are twenty weeks. LOL well I think I will have no problem gaining another pound in four weeks considering I have gained five pounds in the last four weeks lol. He said that because I am so petite he wants to see me gain at 30, he said if I gained 40 that would be ok too. YIKES! Fourty pounds?? I know it will all be worth it in the end, but I hope I gain 30 at the most lol. We scheduled my BIG u/s for Feb the 25th. We couldn't keep the appointment on my birthday anymore, because they were all out of late appointments and I couldn't do an early one due to DH's schedule. Meh oh well, I haven't talked to DH about it yet but I want, the tech to write down the sex on a piece of paper; and than at my B-day party (Feb 27th) we can reveal the sex to everyone! I don't know if we will actually do that, but I think that would be fun. Anyways I am sicker than a dog right now. I have the worst cold that I have had in YEARS! My poor little baby, I am coughing so much, and my lungs are on fire! I got some Robitussin DM and some sudafed. Hopefully I will start to feel better soon, or at least stop coughing enough where I can get some sleep! Anyways hope everyone has a good week!

Aww, I hope you feel better! I had that about 2 weeks ago, and it sucks that you can't take anything! It's kind of gross, but I got one of those sinus rinse things and used it in the morning and at night, and slept with a humidifier. I think it helped! And I can't wait to find out if baby July is a boy or girl!!
