19 weeks

I had my first appointment with the midwife, Jayme, and her assistant, Erin. It lasted for nearly 2 hours! They came to our home last evening and were able to meet Steve and Jesse. We talked about my medical history, my pregnancy with Jesse, and how this new pregnancy is going. They checked my blood pressure, which was fine, measured my belly, which was 19 or 20 cm (I can't remember), and we just talked. It was so nice to just talk about birth! I love it. They gave me a ton of paperwork to fill out, and Jayme will be emailing me the contracts and all. I think it's starting to hit me now that this home birth is going to happen!

I also took a pic today! I didn't post the one from last week, so I'll post them together now. I'll post my 3 week pic as well to compare:

I think I'm definitely starting to pop out a little, which is nice. I'd rather look pregnant than just plain fat. My new maternity clothes that just came from Motherhood Maternity should help! Maybe I'll take some pics as I wear my new outfits. Well, really, it's just shirts. 3 shirts and a sweater came today, and I'm expecting 2 more shirts to come as well. I really need to buy another couple pairs of pants. I just wish I could find some that didn't haul my underwear down. I'm about to say "screw it" and start going commando!
