The baby name for Miss Poppy has officially been decided!  However, it will not be revealed until much later. =D  You are all welcome to guess though.

This is Poppy’s hand.  If you can tell, sorry it’s a bit blurry.  But all 5 fingers are there!  This is my favorite of the 6 photos we received at the specialist visit.  I’ll post the rest of the photos when I scan them in, rather than taking pictures of the picture.

But I have to post this next one… I mean, it’s the profile!!

And here’s the profile of Poppy, at 17 weeks.  She is about 1.5 lbs!   So even though I haven’t been gaining too much weight, she has! !

Doctor said my weight is better, since it’s not dropping, so I’m good to go on that issue – thank god.  I’ve been trying to stuff myself with food, both good and bad.  Doesn’t help that I generally can’t stomach any kind of meat – Bleck.

It’s a GIRL!!!!

I got in a bit of trouble Monday from my ob. She said I was not gaining weight, in fact I had lost weight, and that I will have to come in in 2 weeks to see if I’ve gained weight, or else I could end up in the hospital . Not kosher. So I’m eating. I’m eating fatty foods… but not exactly good for me. Anyway, besides that, Little Poppy Seed has a good strong heart beat. =D

It’s taken a while, but I wanted Wes (the baby’s father) to see the pictures first.  It’s only fair.  Anyway, here are the rest of the ultrasound pictures from last month!

(This is showing the baby’s tongue sticking out. Same with one below.)

(showing the legs and arms. and how long they are!)

(s/he on side.  They had a better one with the spinal cord, but this is still quite cute!)

(This is definitely the monkey picture.  They wanted me to see the eye sockets forming.  Just looks like a monkey to me.)
