May 10th is the date.....

of my next appointment, and we'll be able to find out the sex of our baby!!!! Yesterday I had an unexpected doctor's visit - I kind of passed out at work - but it's all good. I'm ok, the baby is ok. Apparently my iron is really low, and it caused me to pass out. It was not a fun experience, but at least all is good! ;) He also said that my low iron would explain my extreme tiredness and lack of energy, beyond what it normally should be during pregnancy -especially being in my second trimester now. He noticed that my hands and feet are already swelling a bit, which is not a good thing being only 14 weeks. He advised me to watch my sodium intake, and begin to limit it. He said that it was most likely because of all my nausea that I had during my first trimester, I increased my sodium intake from crackers and sprite. I just need to watch it and be careful how much I'm taking in.

Well, since the doctor saw me yesterday, he cancelled my appointment for the 28th, and rescheduled one for May 10th, and by then I'll be far enough along to see the sex of our baby!!! YAY! Can't wait!

Marquita pointed something out to me a while back: (oh, for those who may not know - Marquita is my stepmom)

Marquita and her first husband had a boy, Kevin, then a girl, Billie Jo.
Kevin has had a boy then a girl. Billie Jo has had a boy, then a girl!

Dad had two boys, Jason and Ryan, then a girl, Me!
Jason has had two boys, then a girl.
Dan and I have two boys, I think it's our turn for a girl!! After all, we can't break the cycle going here!!! :)
