CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!! Boys are so much fun, but way different from girls. I wouldn't trade mine for the world.
Maintain a healthy pregnancy and when he's born don't forget to care for yourself. It's all to easy to focus 100% of your attention on everything else but yourself. Schedule a massage or pedicure for after he is born. It might sound like a strange thing to do, but you will appreciate it afterwards. You will find an amazing sense of rejuvenation.
Congrats again!

Thank u so much for the advice. Yeah I too heard many saying that one keeps thinking about the baby more and ignores self, later repent for not taking care of oneself. I would surely strike a balance.

I am avid about getting my friends a certificate for a massage, manicure, pedicure, anything along those lines to give as a gift as opposed to diapers or things of that nature. I learned how important I was in the equation of parenting and cherished that gift from my friend more than any other I could have received.
Even now, with my son at three, I remind myself to take that time every week, if possible, for me. It helps on all levels, including my relationship with my other half. When I go a few weeks without, it becomes apparent that this mom needs so well deserved her time. ;)
