17 weeks and counting

I went to the doctor today and had my blood drawn for some routine tests, like Down's Syndrome. Dr. Wagner told me that all of my previous labs have looked great, and the pregnancy thus far has been just perfect. We also listened to the baby's heart beat again today. It was beating at a very normal 150 beats per minutes. Dr. Wagner said that at this stage in my pregnancy the baby's heart will beat anywhere from 140-170bpm. Pregnancy wise, everything has been going very well. I've never suffered from morning sickness and that alone has been a huge blessing. Lately I have been experiencing lots of headaches. Again Dr. Wagner assured me that was normal and to take Extra Strength Tylenol, which thankfully does the trick for me.
The past 3 days I've had cold-like symptoms... cough, chest congestion, headache, body aches. But most importantly, NO fever. Today I feel much better than I did the past two days. I have no worry of having the flu, but I will still go get a flu shot some time this week. I'm just thankful that I'm already on the downswing of this short lived cold, the worst is definitely over.
My next doctor appointment will be to determine the sex of the baby! I can't wait!!!! I'll post the findings as soon as I know them.
And for all you who live far and who are not Mom, I've posted a few pictures of my growing belly. Dustin says he can tell everyday that my belly is getting bigger. Enjoy!
