21 weeks - update

Hello girls,
I am still here stalking you :) I just don't participate as much as I used to, but I still read your updates and check your charts, etc.
Just want to give you an update on me.
21 weeks today - I truly can't believe it. 6 months ago when my first IVF ended in chemical I was devastated and thought it would never happen but it did :) 2nd time it worked !!!
We are heaving a boy and I am due in March. Life has been crazy and time is flying. There is so much to do before baby gets here and I hate to wait till the last minute so I have been trying to check things off my list as much as I can :D
I think we are going with name Sebastian - it is an easy name to pronounce in both Polish and English language and the name is growing on us every day.
Baby and mama are doing great. I can feel him kicking and I get worried when I don't feel him for a day or so.
This has not been an easy journey as some of you might know. I had some spotting/bleeding at 13 weeks (only lasted 2 days) and then same thing happened at 14 weeks and it lasted an entire week but we are good. All ultrasounds came up good so far and I have another one coming in 3 weeks to check the heart of the baby - apparently there is slightly increase chance of heart defects when you get pregnant via IVF (not that much higher) and they like to check the heart just in case.
I try not to post a lot as I know it is hard on you lovely ladies to be here and trying and reading all the "i'm pregnant" announcements when you have been waiting so long.
I know it will happen for you and I will be stalking you and telling you at the end "I told you so :) " and I can't wait to say that to you.
Sending lots of love
Basia
